I'm having an interesting problem. I have to close and re-start Astra every day or so, because it seems to lose the ability to actually communicate over AIM.

It will stop fetching buddy list updates besides sign-on/sign-off, it won't fetch away message updates, and it won't send messages. It'll look like it's doing those things, but nobody I've sent them to during these intervals can receive them, and I tested it by sending messages both to my own screenname and to my cell phone, and none of them were received either.

I feel like this is a problem. I'm reliably able to duplicate it, by just leaving Astra open for a while, and it'll stop trying.

Ideas?

I too have experienced this problem over the last several builds. Quite annoying.

Mine too, it keeps coming up with a Your buddy list is currently not available, but it has not been lost. Please try again later.
