Buddies

Only the first 20 (maximum) buddies on

the buddy list will be read by the messen-

ger server and displayed on the handset.

The number depends on the available

memory space.

The buddies that are displayed depend on

which buddies were transferred from the

messenger server first.

Example:

The Web names (nicknames) of your bud-

dies are displayed on the list. If they do not

have a Web name, the user ID is displayed.
If the name of a buddy is longer than one

line, it will be abbreviated. You can navi-

gate the list with the control key

q.

The buddies appear on the list in the fol-

lowing order. You can interpret their sta-

tus by means of the colour of the

% icon

next to the buddies (page 50):
1. Buddies with

Online

status or

Ready for

chat

in alphabetical order. The

% icon is

green.

2. Buddies with

Away

,

Extended Away

or

Do not disturb

status in alphabetical or-

der. The

% icon is orange.

3. Buddies with

Offline

or

Invisible

status in

alphabetical order. The

% icon is red.
