I know there is the feature to change your status to somethign after away for a certain amout of time but what about a feature to just make just an automessage so i coudl put like
Sorry, ive been idle for x amout of minutes call my cell phone if you need to contanct me.
or anything but i think it would be a usefull feature cuz i like to keep my status to online cuz im always online but am away and me and my friends figure out the plan through msn and they dont talk usaly if im away but i think the automessage that way woudl be usefull

Instead of adding this "feature", it would be more usefull, IMHO, if the status "online" could be choosen within the personalized status...
And this has been requested before by many people...

In that way you can leave your automessage and still be listed as online...

The problem with that is that it can't detect if you're back online anymore, because you're already online... Plus! will need a new system to disable it then, I think...
