Public IM to a user with a non-aol, yahoo, or msn domain account.

Anyone can set up an account to use the public IM systems using an email address from an unrelated domain (eg. user@domain.com). I have PIC Federation working, but I am wondering if I can use it to send an IM to user@domain.com who is hosted on MSN/Live Messenger.

Additionally only MSN supports them; Yahoo and AIM don't support vanity domains (which some AIM Business accounts may have).
