I have a question about this. If you did this in Msgplus 3.x:
I'm away.
# Really, I'm away!
# No, Really!

You could get a conversation like this if your status was on that config:
X says:
Hey

Y automessage:
I'm away

X says:
Yeah?

Y automessage:
Really, I'm away.

X says:
Ok

Y automessage:
No, Really!

How can I get something similar in MPL, # doesnt seem te work!
