Updating Presence Settings

4 - 2
Monitoring the status (presence) of contacts in a buddy list is an optional feature
that your system administrator enables. Your system may not support it. For more
information, contact your system administrator.
A buddy list is a list of users/devices whose status, or "presence," you can
monitor. Your contacts update their presence setting (for example, Be right
back, Out to lunch, or Busy), and you can view their status in real time from
your phone's Buddy Status screen. If you like, you can block others from
monitoring your status.
Your phone can "watch" the status of up to eight other phones. These phones
form your "buddy list." Your phone can be monitored by up to eight other
phones.
If your phone is configured to work with Microsoft Office Live
Communications Server 2005, the behavior of presence settings and buddy
lists is different. For more information, see
