Message is in the format Nick_Name:Message. Though its true that Nicknames are not unique across a school, but it is the only way to specify XO in a user-friendly manner.
If XO is not currently connected, a SMS autoreply will be sent indicating XO is not present in the mesh. One of the use cases would be when parents want to know about their child's presence in the school considering every XO in school is connected! With the present server model, User friendly aliases are not available as Martin told in his reply to this message. Thanks.
