Or in short: if you don't want to be disturbed, your client needs to make sure you don't get disturbed, which is what my client does. When I go in DND mode, I just don't want messages to be popping up, and I want my contacts to know that I will probably not answer. I don't mind them sending me messages, on the contrary. And if I really didn't want any messages from anyone, I would have gone offline with a status message "Doing something very important"). cheers, Remko PS: I don't think message loops are a problem. Any normal client auto-responds only once. Clients that don't are broken (versus clients that only reply once are merely crippled). If 2 broken clients talk to each other, then they can loop for all I care. _______________________________________________ JDev mailing list FAQ: http://www.jabber.org/discussion-lists/jdev-faq Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=20 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________
