send a /ping command and you'll get the answer...
if you want to do that in a bot, the exact thing you have to send is:
quote:
Ping? [msgplus]
you can also add a command in your bot so the user can decide if he wants to receive plus "features" or not. Maybe at some moment, the user wants to receive sounds but if it's too late at night he doesn't want to. so the user just says "!plus on" or "!plus off" to the bot (or whatever syntax you use)
about the header, that's too much work for Patchou, because plus doesn't work at that level (with the protocol directly).

Plus is done in VC++ 7.1

it might be an idea to send a special formatted header over the IM session to notify everyone,
if you want to notify your contacts, can't you just say "I'm using plus"?

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 the same... just type /ping and you'll know it you can use plus features or not.

that may be a real problem, also if you change what is being sent, ie:

Content-Type: application/msgplus
maybe the server doesn't know how to handle that or the client at the other end.
