Hmmm, that got sent out a day late because my SMTP server was down,
so that was two days ago's TOT that I encountered those issues.
Now, my friend has again been able to actually check my away
message, but it was incorrect. It seems that it set my away message the
first time I put it up, then when I put up a different one it neglected
to change it. It ended up that he saw the first one, IM'd me saying
"so, you're away doing blah blah blah" and ended up getting the actual
current away message as the auto-response. Needless to say he was quite
confused.
Another issue I ran into this morning is that sometime last night
AOL seemed to have set me back to available status. I had numerous
people IM me, but ended up getting my away message. The problem here is
that Fire still showed me as away :-\

BTW - Those were with last night's TOT build.
