Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods are provided to automatically discover if an email address contact is video chat capable. A server receives a request from an electronic device to determine video chat capability associated with an email address. It compares the email address with a listing of email addresses, wherein the listing includes email addresses associated with other electronic devices having video chat capability. If an entry in the listing matches the email address, it returns a message configured to automatically enable addition of the email address as a video chat contact on the electronic device.
