Comment (by hexion):

 More info:

 I had the same issue in this situation:

 - My status is "Connected"
 - A contact whose status was "Invisible" opened a session.
 - We were conversating normally.
 - The contact stopped writing for 1 minute
 - I tried to write a new line, but then the error "The message couldn't be
 sent because the user is offline" happened.
 - The contact writed me another line again.
 - Then I could write again too.

 What happens here? I think that pidgin closes the connection when the 2
 users don't write for 1 or 2 minutes. This shouldn't happen and it causes
 a lot of problems. The connection should be closed ONLY when we close the
 window or the other client closes the connection, AND even if that
 happens, if we write again a new connection should be opened.
