How to notify the user whenever the users in his list logged in.
hi,
Please look into the following scenario.
When ever user(x) logged into messenger who is in another user (y) contacts list then another user (y) will be notified as the user(x) is logged into system and also when user (x) is logged into messenger he will be notified that he got mail into his own inbox.
Please tell us soloutio for these.

Hi Suresh,
For the first scenario (i.e) to get a notification that user (x) has logged in for user (y).
To get notification for all user status changes, goto to tool->settings of user (y) under the general tab select the "Show user status Changes Pop-up" option button . Then click on APPLY and OK . Pop-ups will appear for status changes from all users.
If you want to get notification for selected user , Then in the rooster of user (y) click and select only those users . Now go to tools menu and click on "Alert if users changes status" option. You will get a ' ! ' or a ' * ' mark next to those user in user(y) rooster. So from now, when ever those users changes status there will be a alert for user (y).
For the second scenario (i.e) the mail notification. It is not yet implemented.

As Vinod mentioned , there is no out of the box solution to your second requirement - though it can be implemented.
You will need to use the IM api and write a server side component which will fetch the user's mail status and when it changes , send an alert (or message , etc depending on your need) to the particular user.
