I can confirm the problem and it behaves like this on 4 different computers in 4 different networks (everywhere where I tried it) : If the other side connects, the status updates quickly, if the other side quits, the status _never_ gets updated. If I leave the client up for several days then I end up with all my contacts permanently green. I had this behaviour from the very first Ekiga 3.0 that I installed. > >> If I remember correctly, when a person quits ekiga, there is no update > >> sent on the server.

I would assume that this could occasionaly cause the opposite problem (ie not showing online status when contact is online). But I cannot see how it can actually happen that the client never gets the offline status of the contact if the \"default\" behaviour (ie when no message is delivered to the server within 15 minutes) is offline status and if the communication between the server and client is clearly there (eg new contacts getting online become green). I suspect a bug. > What about sending a message to the server \"I\'m disconnecting\"... and > *not* wait for any answer? The same thing came to my mind after reading the previous messages in this thread. I imagine that it could be quick and safe to implement.
