Receiving a Presence Request
Your Bria receives a new contact request when you add a contact to your list (with “Show this contact’s
Availability” checked) or when another person adds you as a contact at their end.
The request is handled in one of two ways:
•
If you set up a privacy rule before this person has a chance to contact you, then you will never see this
request. Bria will automatically reply to the request according to the rule. See “Preferences – Privacy” on
page 50.
•
If you do not yet have a privacy rule set up for this person or for their domain, this request appears to you as
a Presence Request. You must respond to the request:
•
Block the request. This person will not be able to contact you from this address.
•
Allow the request and create a new contact using this address.
•
Allow the request and add this address to an existing contact (if Bria has found an appropriate match).
