Adding a Contact

Ipswitch Instant Messaging enables you to easily add a new contact to your Personal Contacts List . The ability to add a new contact is beneficial because it allows you to organize unpublished or existing contacts listed in the Public Contacts list into groupings that work best for you.

To add a contact, complete one of  the following two processes:

1. Manual Process:
   • From the Main Window, select or highlight the Personal Contacts.
   • On the toolbar, select Action > New Contact (or right click on Personal Contacts and select New Contact).  The New Contact dialog window appears.
   • In Contact address, enter the new contact's account name, then click Next.
   • The Contact Information panel appears. You can accept the name as provided by the system or alter it to reflect your own preferences.
   • When you've finished entering or altering your new contact's information, click Finish.
   • The Main Window displays. Your new contact is now visible under Personal Contacts.
2. Drag and Drop Process:
   • Click and hold the person or group listing in the Public Contacts List.
   • Drag your selection to and over the Personal Contacts section heading.
   • Release your selection over the Personal Contracts section heading.
   • Your new contact is now visible under Personal Contacts.
