Client sends message,
Message is received by server,
Server sends it to the recipient,
Recipient receives the message.
If you want it all in one language then you will have to do it in Torque, and for this to be ran you will need to have blockland running 24/7.

...So I'm wanting this to work even if players are at a different server or not in a server at all, basically how Ephi's RTBConnect chat works..

So basically an IRC chat.
Easiest way I can think of is using a website hosted on something like HelioHost so you can have php/cPanel access. Ask Brian Smith for help with game/siteserver communication.

so you want an instant messaging thing, wonderful.
