I'm not too sure what you mean :S When you are online you can just open chat and leave them a message, once then sign in it comes up with an offline message?

When the person is offline and I want to leave them a message to see when they log on.

I haven't tried eBuddy, is that good and does it work with Macs? I will probe get BootCamp later but I don't wanna have to swap to windows just for messenger.

[@]@HotelUser[/@] I am currently using Adium and offline messaging doesn't work :S

You mean write a message to someone who's offline and then they receive it when they log on?
If so i'm pretty sure it does let you as you can see offline users, I'm 99% sure.

All the messengers let you see offline contacts but when I try leave them a message it says it sends but they don't receive it. I'll try eBuddy in a bit :D

I've always been able to send offline messages with Adium without any problems at all. I just found this article which says it's been in play for over three years:

Im not sure if you ever found one, but I'm pretty sure aMSN does offline messaging.

Adium does aswell apparently.
