If the people messaging you are using libpurple-based clients like Pidgin and
Finch (and for most common protocols, Adium), then the psychic mode plugin won't
work because we don't send typing notifications over the wire until a
conversation has been established.  A boatload of the official clients, however,
do send typing notifications before the establishment of a conversation.
