Groups

You can create your own private groups for an instant messaging conversation, or
use the public groups provided by the service provider. The private groups exist
only during an instant messaging conversation, and the groups are saved on the
server of the service provider. If the server you are logged into does not support
group services, all group-related menus are dimmed.

Public groups

You can bookmark public groups that your service provider may maintain.
