That only happens if the connection was lost before receiving the message, and reestablished before receiving the iq ping. If that happens then either a) The new connection uses a different resource, and the ping will fail. or b) The new connection uses the same resource, and the server will have sent offline/online presence so you know something screwey's happened. /K
