Remarks
To send a message to a contact, you specify the Groove Identity URL of the contact in a MessageContact in the Recipients element of the MessageHeader.
You can send messages only to contacts that are accessible to the account. The following kinds of contacts are accessible:
Contacts in the account Contact list.
Members of workspaces that the account belongs to.
Contacts who have been the sender or a recipient of a message in the account message history.
If a call to the Create, CreateForward, or CreateReply operation specifies a recipient that is not accessible to the account, a SOAP fault will be returned and the entire operation will fail. The SOAP exception does not provide any information about which contact caused the operation to fail.
