4.6 Responding to Buddy Requests
When using an XMPP account, you may receive a buddy request. You must respond to the request. You have
three options.
• Accept: you let the other person see your online status. At the same time, the buddy request will be
automatically sent from your Bria to thi s person, and you will see this person’s status in your buddies list.
• Decline: the perso n wi ll n ot see you r on li ne sta tus. You will not see this person on your Buddi es list ei the r.
• Ignore: the person will not see your online status. The buddy request may appear in this session or in a
future sesson.
When using a SIP accou nt for presence, you will not re ceive a buddy request. As soon as the person on the other
end registers your softphone number on the client, t he person will see your presence without your acceptance.
Similarily, you will see someone’s presence right away without having to wait for the person’s response.
