While not seeing anything in the wall manpage indicating that the
message reaches other hosts on the network, there's also the
traditional:

talk - Chat with another user
talkd - Remote user communication server
or
utalk - talk-like program with additional features
xtalk - BSD talk compatible X Window System client
ytalk - enhanced talk program

and a "write" variant:

nwrite - Enhanced replacement for the write command

Can't say which would suit best.
