In 8.5, dont know about previous versions of Messenger the window class for Pager/Mobile devices is "PageWindowClass" instead if "IMWindowClass"
i see that Plus! handles those windows by adding the "necessary" plus! buttons on the toolbar...

Though these windows are not added in the tabbed chats but instead are opened each separately in their own window.

Edit: Also the Plus! menu is not added to the menu bar.

Yep, that's all done on purpose. Most Plus! features are useless in mobile chat windows so these windows are left alone. The buttons are left in the toolbar because the window template is the same, clicking on any of them will display an error message.

I realize this is kind of an old thread, but it feels more appropriate to bring it up here rather than make a new one.

I noticed tonight that messages sent in mobile chat windows with a contact on your list aren't logged... I'd say that's the one feature in plus that a mobile chat window that would be nice to have =)

Even if your conversation may be a bit more... broken up, it's still nice to have a record of it. Some people carry on long conversations in those windows..

I know I'm bumping the thread again, but like the last poster it seemed like a reasonable thing here.
I'm one of the people that he mentions with long conversations in Mobile windows - I have a couple of friends with basically unlimited texting and a thumb keyboard on their phones and we often talk for quite some time; discussing ideas and the like.

I have to use WLM's built in logging to log these, and that's somewhat irritating, 'cause the built in logging - though hardly bad, it's a hassle - loses the convo if the program crashes before the window is closed. And it's annoying to have to look in different places for a log. :P

If it isn't too much trouble, I want to add my vote to the idea of adding logging support to Mobile windows.

(Believe it or not, that's why I registered on the forums.. I was searching to see if anyone had mentioned this particular lack)

Just bumping this up again... I love the Messenger Plus! Live chat log feature and it would be simply awesome to be able to have mobile messages be logged as well! :)
