| | 6 | |
| | 7 | Setting a new status message in ICQ 6 causes Pidgin to show the message twice. Changing the the state to something other than available in ICQ 6 results in no message shown in Pidgin although it's still there. Logging out and back in in either ICQ 6 or Pidgin causes at least available messages to be displayed correctly. When changing to available from any other status in ICQ 6 Pidgin displays the message also correctly. |

| | 57 | After setting the message it is shown for a few seconds but then disappears with the line "blist: Updating buddy status for xxxxxxxx (ICQ)" in the debug window. Get AIM Info brings back the message. This applies to all states except Available and Free For Chat where never a status message is shown. |
