an interesting point here is the usefulness of the away option... Ah yes, the
beautiful autoresponse it is possible to make a bunch of sn's msg the victim
and have him respond with him away msg and then warn him...don't think it
counts? it does. Maybe they should make it so the auto response protocol
doesn't count as an im towards warning...but there is a small problem with
that...you can send an autoresponse without actually being away...and can
indeed conduct chat entirely in autoresponse (it happens to be a feature of
aimfilter for those who have that program) Anyway, some thoughts
