#669 How to send offline messages if the receiver is offline and after i turn off my pc

Hi Marco!
I'm using your software fot the office. I have only a little problem: we are a little office, and many times not all PC are turn on.

We are using version 5.8.2 on windows 10 and Windows 7.
If I send a message to anoter user that is offline and then I turn off my PC, when he start the PC he doesn't receive message because my PC is offline. He will receive my message only when I turn on my pc.

I know that this is a point-to-point chat system but I want to know if is possible to use our internal server (that is always turn on, with windows server 2012) to archive the offline messages.

I hope that my question is clear, I'm not the best with english! :)

Hello to you!
Yes... there is a way to do it, but it is not a "great idea"... you can install BeeBEEP in the server, and give it the nickname, for example, Backup.
You can include Backup as member in group (private chats become groups also).
So Backup maintains all the chat where it is a member...

Remember that BeeBEEP saves chats only on "disconnection" or "quit" and saves a "limited number of lines" for a single chat if you don't change the option...
All the chats are also stored in memory... Usually this is not a problem with the RAM available today...

I'm going to rewrite it, storing chats in a local database on a new message making the things more useful and optimized.

Thank you for your ticket!
