Guess :) http://www.aminet.net/pub/aminet/comm/tcp/micq-0.4.0.lha

Yeah - I wish there was an option to disable those in STRICQ. I've yet to
see a pager message in micq, but then again I only use micq to chat to one
particular person (at other times I still use STRICQ).

Yes and no, in answer to the latter two questions. It's command-line based
and the port on Aminet is rather ancient - but at least it works :) I'm
not sure if there are any newer versions available elsewhere.
