According to the README documentation, there are eight different event types for triggering external actions: msg sms url online offline auth contacts notification Unfortunately the documentation doesn't define all these events, and the examples only cover "msg" and "online". I am trying to set up an automatic response message to be sent when a contact changes status to/from Away. This is a standard feature in AIM, called a "buddy alert" or "buddy pounce". However, as far as I can tell there is no event triggered when a contact changes status in centericq. I tried configuring the following action, as an experiment: %action test event all proto all status all %exec #!/bin/bash echo $EVENT_TYPE >> /tmp/events I then logged into AIM from another account using the official AIM client, sent some messages to myself, changed status to/from Away, and finally logged out. The only events appearing in /tmp/events were "online", "msg" and "offline" - no events occurred for the Away status. I would have expected these to be "notification" events. Can anyone help?
