You are talking about two different things; it's completely possible for 
a callee's end system to be registered, but for that person to be 'not 
logged in' (and thus unavailable to receive calls). Having a contact URI 
registered at the callee's AoR does not mean they are 'logged in', it 
just means we know how to contact the callee's system to *find out* if 
they are logged in or not.

However, the longer excerpt from RFC 3261 that was posted does indicate 
that 480 should be used for the 'not registered' case... but for 
different reason than being 'not logged in'.
