 Hi sorry for my problem. I did search on google and the bugrepot of
 pidgin, but found nobody reported this problem.Please forgive me if this
 problem is known but I didn't search it on google.

 My machine:

 Gentoo AMD 64, Pidgin 2.6.3, no plug-in

 Description:

 By pressing Tools-->Preference-->Status/Idle, there is a function called
 auto-away. Under the title "Auto-Away" There are a check box: "change
 status when idle", a
 menu:" change status to". Usually I leave the check box unchecked and the
 menu as "away". However, I recently confirmed from my friends that when
 the idle time  comes, my status would automatically change to "away". But,
 the notification icon on my pidgin still tells me that my status is
 "online". If I leave the box unchecked but the menu as "online", then when
 the idle time comes, both the notification icon and the other clients
 would say my status is online.


 In sum

  BOX         the menu      notification icon     other clients
  uncheck          away             away                        online
  uncheck          online           online                      online
  check             away              away                       away

 Could you please give me any suggestions? Thank you:)
