 I wish to use Pidgin with IRC-proxy (miau: http://miau.sourceforge.net/ )

 Setup/functionality:
  - Miau (irc-proxy) connects to IRCNet and FreeNet
  - Miau will keep the connections and channels online

  - Several different clients can connect even simultaneously to the irc-
 proxy
  - When a client /joins to a #channel, all the clients will see the
 #channel
  - When a client /parts an #channel, the #channel is removed from the irc-
 proxy and
    is not enabled to the clients as well
  - When a client /quits , the channels will still be online for other
 clients

 All of these work well with XChat, irssi etc IRC clients


 Problem:

   When Pidgin client (tested on Maemo and Windows) /quits the application,
 Pidgin send /part or /leave to all the #channels as well. This should not
 happen as it will disable the irc-proxy functionality.

 I tried to look for an solution from the preferences and plugins, but
 failed to find any. Please help with the issue as Pidgin client looks
 pretty nice.

 Usecase:

    - I'm connected to irc-proxy with my laptop. When going outside, I
 would like to use Nokia N810 with pidgin as an client to connect to the
 irc-proxy and continue my current irc-sessions.

 Workaround: To use Xchat...
