If you are running your own XMPP server then your server will provide the ability to send an IM/notification to all online accounts at once and is how you most likely would want to do this. If you aren't running your own server and just need to send a mass IM then you would need to write a plugin for this (or find an already existing one). As to whether such notifications will support HTML (I'm assuming you mean text formatting beyond plain text and not literal HTML) that depends entirely on how they are sent, on what protocol they are sent on, and on what clients your employees are using. And finally, as to having the window pop up on the employees desktops that depends entirely on the client they are using, the settings of that client, the desktop environment they are using, and the settings of that environment. -Etan ___ Support mailing list Support@pidgin.im http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support

As to having the IM Screen Open automatically that would be dependent upon the Settings under 'Preferences'. HTML? I'll let someone else more knowledgeable tackle that.

Pidgin - are there broadcast capabilities ?
Hi, we are looking to find out if Pidgin has broadcast capabilities. We need to be able to "push" notices to employees and have the IM window open on all desktops that have the Pidgin IM client installed. Also need the window to support html. Is this possible ?
