Description Hobbsee 2005-10-09 03:43:36 UTC 
Version:           0.10.3 (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

Like in Gaim, Kopete has a feature of saying when the person you are talking to (known as contact) has left the chat (ie. closed the window).

Unfortunately, it seems that Kopete shows the "[contact] has left the chat" message, even when they have not closed the window.

If this cannot be reproduced, or is too difficult to fix, can we please have an option of removing the "[contact] has left the chat" messages, as they are annoying to get every few minutes.

This is on kde 3.4.2 and kde 3.5 beta.

Expected behavior: that we only get messages of "[contact] has left the chat" when they have actually left the chat!  :P

to close the chat window is the same as to close the socket. And that happens with timeouts as well, so Kopete can't tell if the other side closed the window or if the socket was closed on its own.

fair enough, that makes sense.

Any chance of an option to not show when a person has left the chat?
