Beginning in Release 5.0.2 of Notes mail, you will now be able to see if the sender and recipients of a mail message are online when you read that message. If they are online, you can send them instant messages.

Sametime Connect must be installed for Sametime "Who Is Online" to work.

You will see this feature on the Memo, Reply and Reply with History forms. Specifically, there is a new button in the action bar (near the top of the screen) named "Who is Online."

If anyone in the From, To, or cc list is logged on to Sametime Connect, or if they have the "Who is Online" window open, they will appear in the "Who is Online" window.



Select a name and click "Message..." to send that person an instant message. Unlike mail, an instant message appears on a person's computer screen almost instantly, on top of any other windows the user might have open.

You can also send an instant message to everyone in the list who is online by clicking "Message to All..."
