Description

Hey, Just a suggestion for a possible change to the invisible status. It'd be great if there was an option to send messages while invisible. That way i can use the offline mode to screen my contacts, talking to only those i choose.

The MSN protocol does not support sending messages while invisible, sorry.

Removing milestone, since it's misleading on the roadmap

Windows Live Messenger supports sending messages while invisible

It's an MSNP13 feature I believe. You're stuck waiting for libgaim to support it (MSNP13 is a possible Google SoC project).

Has anyone tried removing the block that prevents this? As if you start a convo then go invisible you can continue talking until they close there window(from what i gather) Is this just an artificial blockade?

  • keywords changed from Invisible mode to Invisible mode msn appear offline.
  • patch_status set to None.
  • summary changed from Allowing Messages to be sent while Invisible to Allowing Messages to be sent while Invisible / appear offline.

This is now supported by Windows Live Messenger so that it should behave exactly as ICQ's invisible status works:

if (I am insivible) {my status is offline to all users on my list} if (I speak to contact x) {x now sees me as online (and only x) until my status is changed to an 'online' status}

  • version changed from 0.82 to 1.0.2.

  • status changed from reopened to closed.
  • resolution set to fixed.
  • pending changed.
  • milestone changed from Waiting on libpurple to Adium X 1.2.

Adium 1.2 has the ability to send messages to MSN contacts while you are invisible.

  • status changed from closed to reopened.
  • resolution deleted.
  • milestone changed from Adium X 1.2 to Waiting on libpurple.

This requires MSNp14, which is no longer in Adium 1.2. It awaits enabling in libpurple.
