Maybe this will help some. Not perfect, but it's an idea.
Personally, I don't use the Everyone much. I don't even remember it is there for the same reasons Leslie is saying.
I thought Leslie used Yahoo. Even recall she uses it as an "excuse" to get out of a room. I don't think you can send multiple messages.
Maybe some can benefit from someone who has tried as LEAST 15 messenger programs. As above, IPMSG is far and away the best ever. Works right out of the box, can be set up much better -- would be glad to help out -- even remote in. It's great, because you can highlight as many or as few as you wish and you can make present groups, so front desk/billing or nursing/front desk. When I send out a "blast" the first staff member who wants to do the dirty deed sends back to all those involved, "on it." Oh, and the cost, free!
On the domain, it is nice because everyone has Outlook open so you can use that confidentially as well over the network.
