Hi all

Just a quick question about gaim. When you add a new Buddy bounce to a certain buddy. So when u off line you can still send a message to your Buddy when He/She comes online. does it only send it once or everytime they come online.

Regards Gerald

You can have it send only once, or there's a checkbox (Save this pounce after activation) that lets you keep the buddypounce and it will go off every time your buddypounce trigger occurs. You can't send while offline though. It only works if gaim is running and your account is online. Yahoo and ICQ will let you send offline messages though. If you're online and your buddy isn't, you can send them a message that will be delivered to them when they sign on to the service. That's not Gaim doing it though, it's the IM service you're using. Jabber can also do that. Hope that helps. -- Ben
