You need Windows messenger and it only works with certain versions. I know
it works with the live messenger client v 8.5.

Instant messaging in outlook puts a little icon on a persons name if they
are in your messenger contact list and you can see if they are online or
offline. When the sender or recipient is online, you'll see a little icon
and a dropdown menu, like the one here:
