Hi all, Currently a lot of clients use one tiny piece of XEP-0013: Flexible Offline Message Retrieval to purge offline messages and stop them from being sent when that client will use MAM to retrieve messages anyways (and therefore doesn't need the offline messages).
However, this feels like a bit of a hack. Disabling offline messages probably shouldn't be required at all if you're using MAM, or doing so shouldn't rely on one tiny part of an old XEP that's no longer used. Bind 2.0 (XEP-0386) also implements this functionality, so that's one option. Alternatively, we could move this functionality into MAM, or find a way for the server to detect MAM and just implicitly disable offline messages. And of course all of this could be in a new XEP if necessary. Any thoughts on what should be done here? —Sam -- Sam Whited _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: [email protected] _______________________________________________
