How do you sign in to the new Office Communicator?

I keep getting an error message saying I can't connect to service. I've tried
every email address I have and on different computers on both networks and
stand alone. Thank you Microsoft. Beta of not some instructions might be damn
handy!

Getting Connected

Office Communicator 2005 requires a connection to Microsoft Live
Communications Server 2005. You may need to find out from your
systems administrator what settings are necessary to make this
connection happen, but usually it is as easy as typing in your
SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) address. Depending on the type
of phone communications you want to have, you might need
additional hardware or configure additional settings.

To set up communications with the Live Communications Server:
1. On the Actions menu, click Options, and then click the
Accounts tab.
2. Under My account name, in the Sign-in name box, type your
SIP address.

Hi Kelley,

You may want to post in the MS Office Live Communications Server
newsgroup. Office Communicator 2005 is a client software that
uses a MS Live Communications Server (link below).
