• GROUP CHAT SESSIONS
If the server you are logged in to does not support group services, all group functions are dimmed. Examples are online menu item groups and search groups.
In group chat, you can exchange IMs with more than one person at a time. When you send a message to a chat group, all members of the group receive your message.
Your IM service provider may have created public chat groups that are open to all IM users. In addition, you can create private chat groups that are open to the contacts that you select from your contact list. A private chat group only exists as long as the chat session is active.
