Fucking fantastic. I have always depended on the behaviour that when I signed on IM, it kicked off other open sessions. Now they keep both sessions active, and route messages to all sesions UNLESS you're away or idle.

So where does the message go? They likely made the arbitrary decision that the first logged on instance gets it - they must have, because that's the behaviour it exhibits.</div>
