I'm running Wdws Live Msgr 8.1 on a corp. network and we have 3 departments
sharing the IM feed. When I want to send a message to 'Group A', I can
double-click the group name, type my message and ENTER. In most cases, not
all members are signed in 24x7 and the IM has this nasty habit of reminding
me my message won't go out to those not signed in. It then proceeds to
scroll thru this long list of names not signed in. Any way to inhibit this
undesirable function?

Thank you.

Greetings,

I call this a bug actually and no, there really isn't anyway to stop it.
