IM and presence in Outlook
The Outlook Integration offers you the ability to view presence information and send IMs directly from Microsoft Office.
Sending an IM
There are two ways to send an IM from Outlook: clicking on IM in the message header and clicking on Send an IM on the mini-contact card.
-
In the header or in the Social Connector, hover over a name or avatar. The mini-contact card appears.
-
Click Send an IM.
- If the contact has more than one address you can send an IM to, you can choose the address you want to use. Click the drop-down arrow beside Send an IM.
Bria Stretto opens the Message window.
- Type your message and click send.
Bria Stretto sends the IM.
To view the online presence of contacts
You can view the online status — the presence — of contacts that have share presence information with you in Bria Stretto. Presence is shown in the mini-contact card, beside avatars, and beside names in the email header.
- On the mini-contact card, presence is indicated by both a colored stripe on the side of the avatar and by having the status in words under the contacts name.
- On the avatar, presence is indicated by a colored stripe.
- In the email header, a colored dot beside the name displays the status.
