O.P. [Idea] IM Message Forwarder
I've thought up yet another plugin idea. :P So here it is..

My idea is a plugin that you can turn on, which copies all incoming messages and sends them through an IM window to a certain MSN account address.

So for example:
If you have a home MSN account and a work MSN account, you could turn on the plugin and set it up to forward all messages to your work MSN account. So while you're at work, you'd get a message from your home MSN account whenever someone would send you a message to your home MSN account. If you know what I mean, it's a bit hard to explain. I think i'll just make a picture to show what i mean, I've got nothing else to do at the moment anyway. :P

(On the left is your home computer and on the right is your work computer.)
The two people have sent you a message to your home MSN account (on the left), but since you're not home you've turned the plugin on and the plugin sends those messages from those people, to your work MSN account (on the right) so you can read them while you're at work.

From all this I'm pretty sure most of you will understand, if you don't then just ask.

So what do you all think, and is anyone interested in making this? :)

Good idea Jaguar... :D.. Could easily be made... I could do it, but to busy with lots of other stuff... It's not that hard to do...
Also this way, you could infact have a person "spying" on your chat with someone... I reguarly sends some text that someone wrote to me, to another person... If the other person needs to hear what we are talking about, this way I could just set the plugin to forward all msgs to the other person... I'd do it sometime, if sometime I get some time to do it and no one else have done it yet.. I'd do it for you and everybody else...

You could just sign in to your email at work. However, you could sign in to a friend's account at home and have that forward. Then again, there's always polygamy.

If I would want to do that then I wouldnt have come up with the idea of this plugin. Also, you can use it for more things than just my example.

Yeah I know you're busy CyBeRDuDe. :P Don't worry about making this, just keep working on your Shortcut Plugin. :P

(Damn you Jaguar, another good idea :P )
i highly doubt that.
sure sending text is as easy as one call but there is currently _no_ way to get the text coming from your contact easily. Plus API wont be allowing it anytime soon either, it would involve some skillful tactics/hooking to get this one to work. (or proxying which MSN7 destroyed :( :P)

i dont really see the point of it though, Jaguar if you really want it made, try to talk me into it over MSN :P. (although i might not be able to do it because i've tried already before :( )
