Hi,

I am working on LAN connection. I am using Windows
Messenger 5. I want to create Groups such as Family,
workers in the Windows Messenger. In the Windows
Messenger, Tools->Manage Group is disabled.
How can i create a group like msn and yahoo.

Greetings Sisa,

Are you using an Exchange IM connection? If so, Groups are not supported on Exchange IM.

Any ideas why? It would be such a useful feature in the Exchange environment.

Hi,

Well, it wasn't part of the Exchange IM protocol and Exchange IM development ended ages ago
(becoming Live Communications Server, which -does- support Groups).
