Accept or ignore an instant message

With Microsoft Lync 2010 communications software you can exchange information in real time with another person by using instant messaging (IM). It's easy to accept a message by clicking the alert that indicates someone is starting an IM conversation with you. If you don't currently have time for an IM conversation, you can choose to ignore the conversation alert. Or, you can change the IM conversation to a voice call by adding audio.

What do you want to do?

  • If you haven't started the IM conversation yet, click Redirect in the alert, and then select a calling option.

  • If you're already in an IM conversation, click the Call button in the conversation window.
