Comment(by eean):

 This bug is annoying because of the error messages. In my opinion, unless
 specifically asked for it (eg a buddy pounce, or its implied that if you
 run pidgin you want chats to open) or in response to user input, a message
 box should *never* pop up. So really just take away the errors or make
 them passive notices, and this bug will go away (since it sounds like it
 caused by uncontrolled server outages, hardly anything pidgin could fix).
