As the header says, I can never get my protocols reconnected automatically after disconnection. I found the fallowed options for each IRC server and checked the boxed there:
- Reconnect (checked: Enable, Wait (s) 10, Retry count 1000)
- Rejoin channels on reconnect
- Keep connection alive

But I actually never saw Miranda NG reconnecting automatically. When I come back to my PC, none of the statuses is on. So, I always have to chose "Online" manually. Is there some other thing that I missed maybe?

You need plugin named KeepStatus - there is no reconnection function built in core, well there is some, but very basic

Ah, thanks. Maybe Miranda NG could include this one as default one in installation package since it's very important.

Damn, I didn't tested the plugin until now. Now I see that it doesn't work either. Actually, it works only for MSN account. None of my IRC accounts are reconnected by this automatically.
I would like if someone could test it too.

Options->Status->KeepStatus

Make sure all protocols you want to reconnect are checked ;)
Also setup everything else you need.. eg. max retries, delay etc.

I did that already, and it didn't work. But I found the reason. Reconnecting shouldn't be enabled (checked) in options of each account (example: options, DalNet: "Reconnect" - unchecked, "Rejoin channels on reconnect" - unchecked). Seems it's in some collision with the KeepStatus's options. After I unchecked it for all of the accounts - it worked finally as it should. I'm not sure if it can be threated as a bug. Good thing is that these things are unchecked in each IRC account by default, so most of the people will not experience it.

but good to know... as if this really happens, there should be at least a compatibility fix inside IRC or KeepStatus... (probably IRC)
