Messenger
The messenger on your phone makes
instant messaging possible (immediate
message transfer, chatting). The phone
supports XMPP messenger (Jabber).
When you go online (page 26), you have
the following options:
u
Display your list of contacts (buddies)
on your handset. Each buddy's status is
shown, e.g. online and ready to chat
(state of presence, see page 26).
u
Exchange messages with your buddies.
The message key f on your handset
will flash and a beep will sound to alert
you to new messages.
u
Call your buddies directly from the
buddy list (page 27).
Preconditions for instant messaging:
u
You have registered with an instant
messaging provider via the Web
browser on your PC and have created
a buddy list.
u
You have saved the messenger server
address and your messenger server
access data (user ID, password) via the
Web configurator on your phone
(page 31).
Note:
If your instant messaging provider does not
support the messenger client on your phone,
open an account with a Jabber server and
enter its address using the Web configurator in
your phone. Many of these Jabber servers
offer gateways to other messenger servers
(e.g. AOL, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo!).
You will find a list of Jabber servers and an
overview of the gateways to other messenger
servers on the Internet at:
http://www.jabber.org.
