I was just wondering if this feature is available ... I can select more then one user in Communicator....using the CTRL and right mouse button so it should work.

How about users that are offline? Will they receive the messages once they are back online again? Are we able to configure this?

Cheers,

Thomas

There isnt a way to do a broadcast message. This is a good idea though. The only way we have been able to think about doing something like this is to createa distribution group and put all of your users in it, and then IM to this group. There is a 100 user limit to this though. So you might need several groups.

Both of these features could be accomplished via custom code, however.
