           Summary: Receiving an offline message from a contact before the
                    roster arrives makes them show up as 'unknown', not
                    'offline'
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: gabble
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: will.thompson at collabora.co.uk

Bug 38603 strikes again! This time, here are the steps:

• have amy at foo.com on your roster;
• sign out;
• get amy to message you;
• sign in;
• receive the offline message from amy;
• receive the roster.

We would expect that, when we get the roster, everyone on it with
subscription='to' or 'both' for whom we haven't seen presence will be announced
as 'offline'. But receiving a message before the roster arrives seems to break
this, and amy will erroneously show up as 'unknown'.
