PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
======================
I have a very strange bug with MSN.
First of all, let me state that I have a very flakey internet connection, my ADSL routinely drops, and resyncs (a few times a day) - so I dont have a stable internet connection at all. However, where other IM software would detect the connection had dropped (including previous versions of trillian), Astra doesnt seem to care - but it then seems to lose sync with the server - and displays a stale list of contacts to me - who I cannot send or recieve messages with.
For example, I might leave my pc on overnight downloading, with trillian running. In the morning, when I am guessing my connection has dropped a few times - trillian lies to me - the contacts listed online arent actually online, and even though I am supposed to be online I am not. When I disconnect and reconnect, the contacts displayed on astra change completely, and I can send / recieve messages again.
EXPECTED RESULT
======================
ACTUAL RESULT
======================
Trillian doesnt reconnect !
REPRODUCIBLE
