I think they player chat menu is located from the EYE menu in the lower left corner.
Bring that up.
Then you just click a players name in the list and send a tell.

Or it works with the method you are using as well, but it's "\t" not "\tell".

It's indeed---> /t "Character Name"

Sometimes, especially for characters who are renamed, or have things such as trema (L'Haÿ-les-Roses) in their names, you'll have to make sure that the name is written properly. When I say that, you'll notice that sometimes in the player name list (where you can simply click on a name to chat) there'll be a space at the end of the name. You have to enter that space when you type it.

I think the client extension solves that issue, though.

the player list tool, off the main 'eye' options button will sometimes put a space at the end of the characters name. i generally have to remove the space, or the tell will not send. it will tell me 'player not found.'


/t "Character Name" vs. /t "Character Name "

*edit

you also need to make sure both parites have enebled tells. long right click on your chat window, and a pop up with several chat options will appear. include tells, include combat logs, include dm tells, etc etc.

An other issue is that sometimes, when you right click a name to tell him, the "" are not properly placed ... check if there is not a space between the last letter of the name and the last "
