O.P. WLM for old persons
Hello

For a regular user, when one receives an offer to exchange via WLM, either by text or video, the following happens :
- the down below button blinks
- a sound goes off

But, when an old person is in this very same situation, sitting in front of his / her PC :
- he / she does not see the blinking most of the time
- he / she does not hear the sound or wonder where it comes from

My question : does Messenger Plus offer some additionnal function to help old / slightly handicaped persons to have a normal access to exchange ?

As an example, I would love that, via an install parameter, the exchange invitation would trigger the opening of the WLM conversation window ; going this way would show the old person that a conversation offer comes in.

To illustrate my suggestion, I can add that, when I want to start an exchange with my mother these days, I first go to her PC via VNC and then open the WLM conversation panel.

This works great but is a bit too heavy and complicated, and limited to myself (how about the rest of the family?).

Thank you in advance for your help.
