One would think. But apparently it does not. Again, the presence
message received:
<presence from='[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
to='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/GAIM' type='error'>
<status>Online</status>
<error code='502'>Server Connect Failed</error>
</presence>

I'm considering what else to do other than show the "buddy" off-line.
I considered doing an error pop-up, as is done with other errors. But
if the user had a half-dozen buddies on the affected server that would
mean a half-dozen pop-ups. No good ;).
