Send an IM that looks like an away message

[Master Jedi]

Would it be possible to send an IM that looks like an away message (i.e. "Auto Response from Username: blah")? It wouldn't serve much of a function, but I think it would be a neat trick to be able to harass my friends like that.

hey about that making it look like an away message...u sorta already can... while in an IM window press CTRL H to get those bars that are in the away messages. then just put the away message stuff. i know it takes a little longer but its kinda fun to do
