Setting a custom away message in a xmpp client (such as Psi 0.10/0.11/-NG) has
no effect:

when setting an away message, other icq clients only get an auto-reply with the
away-message (in some cases) but in all cases the away message doesn't show up
in the status window of other clients.

--

show case:

psi (uin 1), pyICQ-t gateway, icq client (uin 2).

uin 1 client sets status "away" and custom away message (e.g.
"gone. back at 12"); uin 2 sees uin 1 is "away", but doesn't
see the away message in a status window (= one of those shiny mouse move-over
status informations you get in psi/trillian when having the cursor over a
contact).

reproducable: always.

more info will follow up. (tracebacks etc when I have time. which will be in
about two weeks.)

Odd.  I can't reproduce this at all!  Hrm.  I'll keep an eye out for tracebacks
and such.

Think this only happens with Trillian as the user retrieving the message.
I tested with Gaim and Kopete and it works.

I'm using Gajim 0.11.1 and tried it with the newest Miranda too and it didn't
work with both clients.

This problem is charset related, if you use US-ASCII characters only, it works.
Additionally, ICQ6 users won't see it at all, even if you use US-ASCII characters only.
However, setting a status text when the status is online works since the extended
status is used then.
The solution would be to fix the charset issues with the old AIM status messages and
additionally ALWAYS set the extended ICQ6 status.
