The only problem with this is when we have a connection with a user,
they go offline and the connection remains open (This is what Licq
does on MSN). The error you see comes from the server, so in some
cases we can send messages to offline users (if there is an open
connection still). I consider this to be a feature and like this
behaviour much better than the official client.
