Hi Eugene,

Thanks for testing :)  There's obviously a few rough edges to the plugin
since it's only 24 hours old, sorry about the old messages appearing.
That's going to keep happening every time you connect to the account for
now.

I don't think there'll be any way to fix receiving old ICQ client messages
- unless they also show up on web.icq.com ?  If it helps, the old ICQ
clients won't work after the end of the year anyway.

You can debug everything that's going on through the Pidgin debug log:
 from the Buddy List,  Help->Debug Window

Cheers,
Eion
