Hi there,[[BR]]
licq still does not seem to support fetching away messages from icq6
clients. icq6 does not recieve an away message from licq either.
Other unofficial clients have/had this problem, too. I've found a
[http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/703 gaim/pidgin ticket] regarding this
issue where it says:
I read somewhere that icq6 retrieves away messages directly from the
other client, but the latter should support this. The old way was each
client submitting its away message to the server and whoever is
interested, gets it from there.[[BR]][[BR]]
Currently Pidgin supports only the old way, and ignores these new
requests from ICQ6 clients, so they can't see our away message.

Sending away messages this way should already be implemented since you can
script away messages. The gaim/pidgin devs managed to fix this bug.
[http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/3208 Here's their patch], I hope it
helps you in some way.
