Buddy status

[Zhida Ma]

I am using pidgin (version 2.6.6) with Sametime protocol. My platform is
Ubuntu 10.04. The buddy status show all are offline after startup. It only
displays the status correctly after the status changes. Otherwise, it
remains "offline". Seems pidgin does not poll the status in startup. It
only passively receives the status. Any idea how to resolve this? Thanks!
