Managing Buddies

Manage your buddies by selecting the contacts whose presence you want to monitor. These contacts
form your Buddy Status list. You add contacts to your Buddy Status list from your local Contact Directory.
When you select a buddy, a Speed Dial Key is automatically assigned to the buddy (if one is available),
and the Speed Dial Key will display the buddy's status. If the contact you choose as a buddy already has
a Speed Dial Key, the contact's Speed Dial Key will display the buddy's status.
Note: Managing Buddies with Microsoft Live Communications Server 2005
If your call server is Microsoft Live Communications Server 2005, see
Communications Server 2005
