How do you send a message to multiple people with ICQ 2001b?


Okay, up until a couple days ago I was using ICQ99b, I just now upgraded to 2001b...and I can't figure out how to send a message to more than one person at once...

Can it still be done?

Switch to advanced mode if you havent already. Then when your in the message window, click "Multiple >>"

It should be on the far right side of the message window.

I moved to ICQ 2000b from 99b several months ago, and also noticed the lack of the multiple message option I was used to when sending a message to any specific friend. I never really bothered to ask the question as it wasn't something I really used all that often. So, I decided to tidy up my contact list one day into "LAN buds," "Ex-clan members," and the like (before I had all 50+ of my contacts in a single group which was, to say the least, very cumbersome), when by accident I right-click on one of these categories, and what option pops up to my pleasant surprise.... the option to send either a message, URL, or E-mail to an entire category or "group" of contacts.

I'd also like to know if there's a way to enable that multiple message option from inside a regular message dialog, or a similar way of accomplishing the same thing besides the above. So, I hope I was of some help, and a slight BUMP for any of our lingering questions....

well, here's what i do

i type the message, then click the "more" button on the bottom left

then click "multiple recipients" and put a check mark in the box by everyone's nickname that i want to receive the message, then hit send

In the single-message mode (not the AIM-like dialog), click on "More" at the bottom left and then "Multiple Recipients >>>" There's no way to do it in the dialog mode.

More button on the bottom left is gone...

I was going to say the same to you DaZ, but you were right, I was just not in single mode
Thanks guys.
