Comment(by RawrSean):

 Replying to [comment:1 elb]:
 > Notices appear in IM windows for a number of reasons in Pidgin, and this
 isn't likely to change soon.  For one, the "usual" IRC client behavior of
 notices appearing in the currently active window is somewhat bogus in
 Pidgin, as the currently active window may not be an IRC window at all.
 Sending to the most recently active IRC window runs the risk of burying a
 notice in an unpredictable location.

 behavior, as it is not clearly more correct than replying with a standard
 privmsg.  You may reply to a notice with the /notice command if you like.


 Then, can it be made so that if you get a notice while the active window
 is an IRC window in which you've spoken in within a user defined amount of
 time, it'll show it in that window, else, new window?
