Yes. It involves tampering with the registry and Messenger's own font settings. As a result, your contact does not need any addon to see the color.

The script must do:
  1. Read the REG_BINARY registry value
    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\PerPassportSettings\<your_windows live_id_hash>\IM Color
  2. Set a new value for 'IM Color'
  3. Send the message
  4. Set the old value of 'IM Color' back.

Wouldn't the script need to close the chat window first prior to sending the message? I was under the impression just changing the key only takes effect after the window is opened or you change the font colour using Messenger itself.
