Sending a Broadcast IM
You can send an IM to several people at one time. A broadcast IM is not a conference IM.
•
With a broadcast IM, each recipient can reply to the IM, but only you will see these replies; the other
recipients will not see these replies.
•
With a conference IM, all parties see everyone’s messages and the messages each party sends are seen by
everyone. See “Conference IM—Group Chat” on page 28.
1. Select the parties from the Contacts tab in one or more of the following ways:
•
Select one or more contacts in the usual ways (using Shift-click or Ctrl+click).
•
Select one or more groups in the usual way.
2. Right-click and choose Send Broadcast Instant Message. The Send Broadcast Instant Message window
appears.
Click to add more contacts. Shows the display names of all
the selected contacts and the individual display names of
all the contacts in any selected groups. Contacts that do
not have a softphone address are not included in the list.
