Instant messaging (IM) (network service) allows you to

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 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 of services. For more
information on IM settings, contact your service
provider.
You may receive the settings in a special text message
from the service provider that offers the IM service. If
not, enter the settings manually.
