Creating a chat list for all employees?

Hello,

I set up about 20 people on Live and 15 people on mac messenger at the same
company. Everyone asked if I could populate the chat list with the other
employees for them. Is there a way?

Thanks

Hey Boe,

Messenger can use a .CTT file on the Windows version (see the Contacts menu's Save and Import
contacts options) which you can just send around to be imported on each PC. However, I'm not
sure if the Mac version supports this.

Hi Boe,

If you don't mind checking if the Mac version has the feature, I wouldn't mind hearing about
it since I don't have a Mac here .

Hi, Jonathan.
I just fired up my olf iMac, updated the latest version of Messenger for MAC,
and can confirm that this option is indeed available. It recognizes a .ctt file
made by Windows Live Messenger.

Darn it - I thought I might actually get to contribute for a change - JK -
Thanks for checking. I'll give it a try at work tomorrow.
