Hello,

Im not sure this belongs in this category, but I couldn't find any other category to post it in.

Anyways, in the current version on MsgPlus! you can only let someone else know you have Plus! by doing one of the commands, or /ping.

However, considering the growing population of "bots" on Messenger's network, it might be an idea to send a special formatted header over the IM session to notify everyone,  including bots you can receive Plus, or of course, cannot (Maybe include a small list of features enabled?).

I'm sure a lot of people in the bot community, including myself, would be quite thankfull for this, seeing we can then determine if we can use Plus! with that specific user, or if we cannot.

Another handy thing about this, that normal users can get notified that the other doesn't have Plus! so it's useless to use those features in the IM session.

Just an example of such an header might be:

MSG <id> N <length>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: application/msgplus

Features: <bitwised feature string>

The bitwised feature sting can work like MSN's bitwising, which surely isn't hard to do in C (as I assume MsgPlus is written in C or a similar language).

Thanks!
