I'm answering all the prior messages about this. Ideally there
WOULD be an extension to a message wherein you could instruct the
remote server to bounce messages for users that are not online... but
I don't think gtalk supports that and I have no idea if they well.
As far as probing goes, I guess you could probe if you haven't seen
activity in a while, though I wonder whether that wouldn't be frowned
upon by other services. I'm not sure if its seen as outside the spec
if you will. We're talking about a potentially VERY large number
of JIDs so it seems eventually you'd be constantly probing, which
other servers might not like.
On of the prior comments was about how servers default to the next
available resource if the one being sent to is offline. That's not my
problem as we are only sending to the bare JID in the first place.
The problem is that NONE of the user's resources are online, even
though we think there's at least one of them that is.

3. I believe the specific remedy for your situation and of similar
other alerting bots would be to define an XMPP extension / message
attribute that would instruct the remote server to deliver a message
only if it thinks the user is in a certain presence state. (Whether
or not Gtalk will implement it is another matter). This could be
part of extensions defining delivery instructions in general.
XEP-0079 [1] perhaps?
