Twitter send messages.

via web
Is is possible to send DM from my bot using the send message API. I need to send multiple messages in reply to a query and am using the send message API. It sends the messages as replies to the user. I wish to have a different mode of answering (DM vs @replies) matching the input channel type (private Vs mention)

Hi Santosh,
Each incoming message to your bot is sent with the parameter "channel". The
value will be public or private. For Twitter, if a message is a dm, it will
be private and you can respond accordingly.

Hi Dave,
Ya I can distinguish between DM (private) and replies using channel.
But I don;t know how to send mulitiple DMs in response.
The send API doesn't let u specify whether the message should be sent
as DM or reply.(or I am not aware of it)
Please let me know how do I specify this to the send message API.
