Using Quick Messages

On the toolbar found between the Conversation and Message text boxes, click the Quick Messages button, and then click a preset message you need. Depending on your settings, the message will either be inserted into the Message text box, or sent automatically right away.

If a keyboard shortcut has been assigned for this preset message, you can just press it on the keyboard instead of opening the Quick Messages menu.
