Hi, my problem is this :
I use the option "automatically change status after  aperiod of inactivity..." coz I consider it a very useful feature
BUT, it just doesn't cooperate with Personalized status
In Plus 2 the auto status was set automatically only when the status before was ONLINE, but with Plus 3 it changes no matter what the previous staus was----> auto status overrides my personalized one which of course is not useful at all, coz when I set my own status, leaving an auto message which I awnt ppl to read and I go away from comp, soon the auto status is set :/
An mine is the case about losing connection and relogging in automatically, I have wireless connection which is not super stabile
I like Plus 3, it's much cooler than version 2, but this thing with statuses was working better in previous version, so I wonder if it's possible to remove it.

There is a registry entry to modify for you

http://www.msgplus.net/help_registry.php :

Key: HKCU\Software\Patchou\MsgPlus2\your@email.com\Preferences ->  AutoAwayAlways
Value: 1
Description: Boolean value. If false (0), the "change status after x minutes" feature changes the status only when the user is currently Online or Idle.

Err...you had to manually create that key if it wasn't found. Sorry that I forgot to say it AutoAwayAlways is different from AutoAwayStatus.
