Hello I need to send a message somehow to a avatar name that is possibly out of the current sim the object is in.
I don't have the key saved, only the avatars name.
llInstantMessage and dialog require keys, so those wont work unless I can convert the name to a key somehow.
I was thinking maybe llEmail, but am not sure if that will go to them as a IM or not, nor do I know what address to put in.

Any ideas?
thx

Unfortunately, this function doesnt exist, I've been asking for it for a very long time now.

is there any way to use llEmail function to send a IM to a avie?? or maybe the avies SL email? otherwise im going to have to store the keys somewhere, and thats going to suck because keys take up lotsa memory :\ and my list with the names is not static, so it would be hard to match the keys list with the names list :\
