#3602: Forward to Mobile Issue
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  omairee         |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new             |   Priority:  minor 
Component:  pidgin (gtk)    |    Version:  2.2.1 
 Keywords:  forward mobile  |    Pending:  0     
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 I am using Windows Vista, and Pidgin 2.2.1, but have also used Pidgin
 since version 1.5, and started on Windows XP.

 I have yet to get Pidgin to properly forward IMs to Mobile, even though
 the settings have been changed on AIM itself. If I sign off of Pidgin, IMs
 forward properly, but as long as I am on Pidgin, even if I set my status
 to Mobile, nothing occurs. I'm not sure if I am setting this up in Pidgin
 improperly, or if it is a feature that is not handled in Pidgin.

 Like I said, if I were to exit out of Pidgin, any IMs sent to my
 screenname would be forwarded properly to my phone, but I have been
 completely unable to make it work in Pidgin and I think I have gone
 through every combination of options to make it.

 Maybe the issue is on the coding end, maybe the issue is with me, I do not
 know. I kindly ask for some help, as the other two tickets about this
 issue seem to have been forgotten about. Sorry to have opened a dupe, but
 I feel correcting this issue would make Pidgin a complete replacement for
 AIM (and I absolutely despise the new versions of AIM). In regular AIM, I
 use and abuse the Forward to Mobile feature, and there seems to be at
 least three other people beside bugged by this issue, and I believe it
 would make all of us extremely happy to be offered some assistance, and
 hopefully even a solution, and I'm sure there are many more that would
 either be glad to have this feature back, and others who will learn to
 start using it.
