Instant messaging (IM) (network service) allows you to converse with other people using instant messages and join discussion

forums (IM groups) with specific topics. Various service providers maintain IM servers that you can log in to after you register

to an IM service. Service providers may differ in their support of features.
If IM is not available from your wireless service provider, it may not appear in the menu of your device. Contact your service

provider for more information about signing up for IM services and costs for services. For more information on the availability

of IM settings, contact your network operator, service provider, or dealer.
You may receive the settings in a special text message from the network operator or service provider that offers the IM service.

You must save the settings to access the service that you want to use. You can also enter the settings manually.
