Comment (by AnD):

 Replying to [ticket:4606 richardaburton]:
 > I have contacts which have "show when offline" set on them. When I start
 pidgin these contacts (if they are offline) are not shown. If I enable the
 global "show -> offline buddies" option, and then disable it again, the
 buddies do correctly appear in the list.

 I have same problem in Pidgin-2.4.3, and it gone around by switch on
 option "show empty groups". After that buddies, marked to show offline are
 wisible on atartup.
