• "Save group messages as offline if the recipient is not available" — Group messages sent to Messaging Groups can be also saved on the IM server as offline messages if one or more recipients are not available. Select this option and set the number of days for group messages to be stored on the server.
  
  
• "Save news messages as offline if recipient is not available" — News messages sent from the IM server can be also saved as offline messages if one or more recipients are not available. Select this option and specify the period for storing those messages.

After the specified pending period expires, message can no longer be delivered to the recipients and are moved to the Deleted pane in the Archiving & Logging view.
