O.P. Wondering about the Idle status...
The idle status, is it server sided detection whether a person doesnt do anything for a moment, or is it client sided and status set when his/her computer doesnt register any activity?

Because if its server sided, we should be able to make a script, like a logger, wich logs per contactperson for how long he/she isnt active, if the server didnt switch his/her client to Idle already.

Basicly, seeing how long someone is 'inactive', while the status hasnt been set to Idle yet.

Possible?

Idle status is triggered client side. For users without msgplus, if a user is Idle, it will just list the user as 'Away'.
And yes, a script should still be able to count how long a contact is idle for still.
