The chat window object is returned though, MrT's code is not needed.
ChatWnd = Messenger.OpenChat("smarterchild@hotmail.com");

Syntax:
[object] OpenChat(
    [var] Contact
);

Return Value:
A ChatWnd object if the function succeeds or null if it fails.

But isnt there a way to get the current window handle, send message,  then bring the original to the front?

code:
TopWnd = Interop.Call('User32', 'GetForegroundWindow');//Get the Active Window
ChatWnd = Messenger.OpenChat("smarterchild@hotmail.com");//Open the ChatWnd
ChatWnd.SendMessage("Testing");//Send the Message
Interop.Call("User32", "SendMessageW", ChatWnd.Handle, 274, 0xF020, null);//Minimize the ChatWnd
Interop.Call("User32", "BringWindowToTop", TopWnd);//Get the Active Window _BEFORE_ Sending the message on top



When you minimize the chat window again, the window that was on top before will already become the activated/top window again.

So this is not needed either:
    TopWnd = Interop.Call('User32', 'GetForegroundWindow');
and
    Interop.Call("User32", "BringWindowToTop", TopWnd);

This is all you need:
code:
var ChatWnd = Messenger.OpenChat("smarterchild@hotmail.com");//Open the ChatWnd
ChatWnd.SendMessage("Testing");//Send the Message
Interop.Call("User32", "SendMessageW", ChatWnd.Handle, 274, 0xF020, null);//Minimize the ChatWnd
provided the email is valid and a message can be send, so better add if (ChatWnd.EditChangeAllowed) {} too...
