Adium does not reconnect automatically after disconnect

Post by zbeckman »

This is really annoying. I've been through all the preferences and can't figure out how to make this work...

Every time Adium looses a connection (wireless fades out or something) I get an error panel telling me I've been disconnected. When I click "Dismiss All" in the error panel, Adium does not automatically reconnect. This strikes me as totally wrong...

#1. I don't want to get any error panel.
#2. Adium should just automatically reconnect me as soon as it can.

In other words, it should work the same as iChat (and MSN, and Yahoo!, and AIM)... It should just work, not keep pestering about things I have no control over.

The major problem I have with the error panel is that, first off, it is annoying as all get out and there's nothing I can do about it anyhow. So why bother? But more important than that is that once Adium goes offline it stays offline unless I tell it to reconnect, and that just seems flat out wrong.

I'm hoping I'm missing a configuration setting somewhere, because this makes Adium an unworkable product as far as I'm concerned.
