RE: IM

["Robert Carl" <RCarl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Have you checked with Yahoo?  I can tell you that my mobile phone uses a
text-based version of Messenger and it works like this:  To send the text
message to a Yahoo user, the TO field on my telephone SMS(simple message
service?)  is 92466, which apparently is recognized by Cingular, my
carrier, as a Yahoo destination.  In the text of the message you have to
prefix it  'to userid msg'  for example,  'to tss_inc Hi Tom, how are
you?'  Where tss_inc is a valid Yahoo email address.  The text is limited
to 138 characters or something like that, but the system will forward it
into pieces.  Also it seems unreliable at times, but that seems to be a
Messenger trait and not just my SMS on the phone.

This sounds like a handy tool to have.  Let me know if you figure it out
as it would be handy for our system as well.

subject: Sending an IM when a halt appears on QSYSOPR

Hi All,

I have a monitor program that sends me an email when a halt message
appears
in qsysopr. I would also like to send an IM to my yahoo instant message
profile.

Does anyone have any idea if this could be done and how?
