I noticed over the last few days while I am signed into the Messenger Service
that for some reason I cannot change my Status (Online to Away) etc. It will
stay Online, I thought nothing of this the first time I figured it was just a
delay and It would change in a few seconds or more. Anyhow, it will not
change... Messenger does not appear to of crashed, or frozen. It even seemed
like I was able to send messages to others (which it was not doing) I soon
realised what was up and Signed Out, I got a few error messages saying
'Conversation could not be started with this contact and that contact'

I signed back in, the problem goes away ...for a period of time anyway. I
have no idea whats up.

WLM 8.5 1288.816, I do realise this is a beta and could be a bug, I haven't
had this problem before though.

I have started the connection logging option just incase I have to provide
more Information.

I've heard this has to do with losing connecting with the notification server, but I still don't know how to remedy the problem.
