To search for a contact, tap

in the lower right corner of

the screen. Enter the search words.

To be able to communicate with a contact, you must define
account settings for the internet call and instant
messaging services. For more information, see ‘Accounts’,
p. 27.

Before you can start to communicate with your contacts,
you need to send an authorisation request or response. An
authorisation request is normally sent automatically when
you add a new contact. When a recipient receives an
authorisation request and accepts it, you can see the

recipient’s presence status and can start communication.
When you remove a contact from your address book, the
authorisation is also removed.

To get in contact, select a contact from the list and, in the
contact dialog, tap an available channel for
communication:

to call the contact,

to chat with the contact, and

to send an e-mail message to the contact.
