That won't have an effect for AIM, for which Pidgin has supported offline messages since 2.4.0 (two years ago). That your chat partner cannot see them speaks to either a server issue or a bug in the remote client (retrieval was broken in Pidgin 2.6.3, but fixed in 2.6.4, for instance). > > On 3/16/2010 1:41 PM, Sean Parmelee wrote: >> I find it incredibly frustrating that when I have been talking to >> someone over AIM in pidgin, and that person signs off (expectedly or >> otherwise), I receive no notification whatsoever.
