i tried sending a message using "net sent localhost hello" but it gives error

i tried, 127.0.0.1,computer name, IP add etc but it gives error all the time
"An error occurred while sending a message to 192.168.1.2.

The message alias could not be found on the network.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2273."

only "net send * hello" works. but i dont see by who/how the message is recvd. nothing appears on the screen.

Thats maybe because you people have the messenger service disabled on the recieving machine, or a firewall is blocking it..
