I used the search but couldnt find any previous topics on this.. maybe I used wrong terms??

Anyway, isnt there anyway to send an offline user an IM?? I cant believe you are unable to send someone an IM using AIM just because someone is offline… and please dont say just email them.

Send an IM to AIMOfflineB1. (the bot may not appear visible if added to your buddy list) Follow the steps given and you are sending offline messages.

If you checked the FAQ sticky at the top of the AIM forum:
“Q: Can you send messages to an offline user, so they’ll receive it when they go online?
A: Sure, use DoorManBot.”

DoorManBot, like AIMOfflineB1 will not show up on your buddy list, but DoorManBot2 will
