I want to have a pop up window to appear when someone from my whitelist tells me something and the tell should be captured into that pop up....is that even possible?

#TRIGGER {(%w) tells you '(*)'} {#if (%ismember(%1,@whitelist)) {#message {%1 tells you '%2'}}}
probably a better way to do this :p

#TRIGGER {(%w) tells you '(*)'} {#if (%ismember(%1,@whitelist)) {#beep;#message {%1 tells you '%2'}}}

#Message only lasts for 10 seconds, though; after that, the message window disappears. There IS a fairly simple way to do this but currently #MAKEWINDOW is just buggy enough that this particular solution would be useless unless you had a window permanently open and on top.

actually, you can set the time that the #message lasts. from the help file:

#MES [time] string

#MESS 1 "Quick message"
Displays the message for only 1 second

The prob that I have with it is that unless i did something wrong, it only displays ONE line worth of info.
I'd set something up once to display a fe lines worth of info (I think it was quest info) and it only gave me one line out of a 3 line msg

Use capture instead.

#TRIGGER {^(%w tells you *)$} {#if (%ismember(%1,@whitelist)) {#beep;#capture {Whitelist} {1}}}

is there a way to change the colors from black/red to something else in the message?

Nope. #MESSAGE = #BUTTON in this regard, insofar as the caption itself is concerned (ie, using %ansi() in the message/caption will only cause you see the actual ansi code rather than the color itself).
