I believe you can use “msg <username> <message>”
On Windows 7 if you go to a command prompt and type msg, you should get the syntax.
Good luck.

Subject: [MSUNAG] Messages to all users on my domain
Hello MSUNAG List,
I’m looking for a way to send a pop-up message to all the users in my domain without turning on the old insecure windows messaging feature that was in XP Pro.
I would usually just use the email feature but when the MSU Mail is down and I need to let people know that and keep them updated I need another way to communicate.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
Server = Windows Server 2008 & Server 2008 R2
Desktop units = Windows 7 Pro
No exchange server obviously
Thanks
