IBM Workplace Managed Client users: If your company uses IBM Workplace Collaboration Services for instant messaging, features may differ from the IBM Lotus Sametime instant messaging features described here. For information on instant messaging with Workplace Collaboration Services, see the Instant Contacts section of IBM Workplace Managed Client Help.

The Instant Messaging Contact List contains people with whom you want to have chat sessions on a regular basis. Even before you add any names to your Instant Contact List, you will see all the names in the current mail message's "From," "To," and "cc" fields at the top of the List. These names change depending on which mail message is active.

To display the Instant Contact List, do one of the following:

• Click the instant messaging portion of the status bar, and select "Show/Hide Instant Contact List."

  

• Click Chat and choose Show/Hide Instant Contact List.
• In the toolbar, click the "Show/Hide Instant Contact List" icon .
• Choose File - Instant Messaging - Show/Hide Instant Contact List.
