pidgine messages to all

Question

ejabberd 16.01-2
client Pidgin 2.13.0 (libpurple 2.13.0)

I send message to all user if user is offline will not receive a message.

I want to send a message to everyone (mod_announce) via pidgin 2.13.0 (offline and online). Message to offline users is not saved.

mod_offline is running
auth_method: internal

Answer 1

If you send the messages using mod_announce, it depends the method you use:

• This is sent only to online accounts: example.org/announce/online

• This is sent to all accounts, online and offline:
  example.org/announce/all

See https://docs.ejabberd.im/admin/configuration/modules/#mod-announce

Answer 2

I update ejabberd to 20.01 and all is OK now.
