8.5 is on a different protocol than WLM9. So it shows the status code that is being sent from your client. WLM9 turns those status codes (BRB, Out To Lunch,etc) into Away.
BRB and Out To Lunch are the SAME thing as Away.
This is a stupid suggestion IMO.
But it does work. Apparantly, brb, lunch and phone are still in the protocol. I can set my status to that using Messenger Plus and it still shows, just not with other people who are using WLM9, including myself.
Just because most people don't use these as seperate statuses, it's not directly a stupid suggestion, not for me!
