My contacts who run yahoo messenger in windows set their accounts to show "idle" after so many minutes. Empathy continues to show their status as "Available". Pidgin correctly shows them as "idle" plus the number of minutes idle. They can select their "Busy" and "Invisible" statuses and those do display correctly in Empathy. It appears to be only the idle status from Yahoo that does not register correctly with Empathy.
