net send <computername> works
 
Here is an example:

net send bl-pc "test"

I get an error of :
An error occurred while sending a message to bl-pc.

The message alias could not be found on the network.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2273.

I also tried with the IP, but same error. Adding the domain before the PC
( domain\bl-pc ) same result. What am I doing wrong?
 
Ok, I found the issue. I forgot, we have disabled the
Messenger service with a policy. Is there another way to
send a message to a Pc with the Messenger service turned
off?

Sure, use sneakernet or some Instant Message program.

I'm missing half of this thread, so forgive me if this has been said.

Just net send the computer name, IP address, or other messenger-registered
names for that computer.
