AboutJoerg Droege Expertise I can answer all questions regarding ICQ except those like: "I have lost my password, how do I get it back?" because I am not an ICQ Team member, so I cannot do anything about lost passwords.
Experience I did an education as a Management Assistant in Informatics, I am using ICQ since ICQ2000b, but of course I know the current ICQ client the best. I also used the alpha ComPad ICQ client.
Education/Credentials Management Assistant in Informatics education under the control of the CCI (Chamber of Commerce and Industry).

Question Until a few days ago, I was using ICQ 5.04 for my ICQ program of choice because it allowed me to send group messages to my contact list. ICQ will no longer allow me to use this version and I've looked for but cannot find this feature in the new version ICQ 6. Is this feature available, either in the program or as an add-on? Any help would be appreciated.
Answer Hello Sage!
Thanks for your question!
Yes, old obsolte clients are disabled to keep the network secure. The ICQ Team does that at times.
No, the BuzzIt! Xtra of ICQ 5.x is not in ICQ6 yet but since ICQ6 is still being worked on it might come again at a later point.
