does not connect when unavailable

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Set Pidgin to 'Offline' status.
2. Set Pidgin to 'Away' status.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
In my account preferences, I have "Not receive messages while unavailable" 
deselected, so I expect to connect to my Twitter account and see new messages.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
The plugin states that its version is 0.3.0.  I'm using the current version of 
ArchLinux, and I've installed libmbpurple through the package 
community/microblog-purple 0.3.0-1 .

Hi,
thanks for the report.
I can not reproduce this behaviour either in Windows (using Pidgin 2.7.5) or 
gentoo-Linux (using Pidgin 2.7.9) both are using mbpurple 0.3.0.

- Have you reconnected the TwitterIM-account after deselecting "Not receive 
messages while unavailable" (changes to account-settings currently take effect 
only after reconnecting)

- Which version of Pidgin are you using?

- Does the TwitterIM icon of the account get gray (disconnected) when in 
"unavailable" mode?

- Can you please start pidgin in debug mode logging it's output (i.e. pidgin -d 
> pidgin.log) switch to unavailable, wait a minute, then end pidgin and attach 
the log here?
