    t2afff,

    You can send a dm-tweet that will dm other people. Just do this "dm twitter_account dm user_you_want_to_dm This is my dm to the user". It will send out just fine, I just tested it on my own tweethopper bot with my account and sent a dm to myself.

    Hope that is clear enough and makes sense.

    I am not sure I follow.

    You setup a DM-tweet job on a twitter account you own, and you authorize certain twitter users to "repost" messages from.

    I setup the "Tweethopper" account to allow "joshowens" to repost to it's account, using direct messages. Whenever I DM "Tweethopper" from my "joshowens" account, tweet hopper picks up those direct messages, sees that they are from an authorized twitter user and reposts them to twitter as "Tweethopper".

    Hope that makes sense.
