 users will dissapear.

 (19:16:35) offlinemsg: Account "kermit4 at chat.facebook.com/Pidgin" supports
 offline messages.

 No popup option to make a pounce comes up.  It should.  I see no option in
 the account creation to set wether or not the account supports offline
 messaging, so it seems pidgin is assumign all XMPP servers do, but they
 don't, so that option needs to be added in the account creation, with the
 default to *not* supported, so messages don't silently disappear.
