Add a contact to your Contacts list

Note: When you add a contact to your Contacts list, Communicator Mobile requests the contact's permission to display presence status to you. The contact's presence status will be displayed as Offline until the contact allows you to view his or her presence information.

If the user accepts your request, the presence status in the Contacts list will be updated. In the meantime, or if the contact denies permission, you can view the contact's presence status by searching for the contact as described in Search for a contact.
