Using Buddy Status Lists with a CMA System

If your phone isn’t provisioned by a CMA system, your phone handles presence and Buddy Status lists differently than what is described in this section. For information on monitoring the status of contacts when your phone isn’t provisioned by a CMA system, see “Using Buddy Status Lists” on page 91.

The CMA system provides a presence service that allows you to view the status (for example, “available” or “busy”) of contacts in a Buddy Status list that you set up. Your Buddy Status list is your personal space for storing information about the people and systems you communicate with most frequently. You invite people in the CMA Directory to join your Buddy Status list. If the person’s system supports sharing presence, the person receives an invitation to be in your Buddy Status list.

Entries in your Buddy Status list are automatically assigned a Speed Dial Key (if your phone has Speed Dial Keys available), which also displays an icon to indicate the buddy’s status.

Buddy Status list entries are assigned all available Speed Dial Keys, even if a Speed Dial Key is being used for a non-CMA contact.

Buddy Status list entries don’t display in your Speed Dial Information list.
