11. General Notes on IM Handling
Sending the first message to an IM buddy triggers the client to go into IM mode with
refresh rate between 2-5 seconds. (same polling time for each open session)
This polling time starts for the RockeTalk user if an IM user sends them a message
and they open it.
Note: Limit chat to only active X chat sessions running simultaneously. A fourth
session request leads to a pop-up with error message “You have three chat
sessions open. Please close one chat session to accommodate a new one.”
If another (4th) user sends a message, the message is displayed like a normal
message but with a tag saying “You have three chat sessions open. Unless you
close a chat session, messages from this user will be delivered to your Inbox.”
(unless we decide to accommodate more chat sessions )
All IM messages generate a different alert tone no matter where a user is, in chat
mode, on some other screen or whatever.
IM message in the Inbox is displayed with an icon of the related IM portal.
