Offline Messaging makes it possible to send IM's to people who are not online.
Instead, the messages are saved to a database and delivered the next time the recipient logs in.
NOTE: Diva Canto has contributed a new Offline Instant Messaging v2 module in 0.7.6 dev revision r/22086 which does not need an external PHP script.

[edit] OfflineMessagingModule Configuration Steps
The OfflineMessagingModule is already compiled and ready for use in current versions of OpenSimulator.
However, you will need to setup the "back-end" database and PHP connector scripts to support the OfflineMessagingModule.
- Configure the Offline_IM database table in your MySQL using commands in Offline_IM.sql (below)
- Upload the mysql.php (below) into your web server
- Upload the offline.php (below) into your web server
- Enable the OfflineMessagingModule in your OpenSim.ini file
[edit] STEP 1: Offline_IM.sql
Save these SQL commands to an Offline_IM.sql file on your MySQL server.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `Offline_IM` ( `uuid` varchar(36) NOT NULL, `message` text NOT NULL, KEY `uuid` (`uuid`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
Connect to your MySQL (Linux commands shown):
$ mysql --user=$mysqluser --password=$mysqlpassword $databasename
Replace $mysqluser, $mysqlpassword, and $databasename with your specific configuration.
At the mysql prompt, source the Offline_IM.sql file to configure your database to hold offline IMs:
mysql> source Offline_IM.sql ... ensure no error messages appear here ... mysql> quit
[edit] STEP 2: mysql.php
Copy this PHP script to a file called mysql.php and upload the script file to your web server.
No edits of the script should be necessary.

[edit] STEP 3: offline.php
Copy this PHP script to a file called offline.php and upload the script file to your web server.
Edit the $dbName, $dbHost, $dbUser, and $dbPassword lines at the top of the script to match your database and server information.
<?php $dbName = "comunity"; $dbHost = "localhost"; $dbUser = "root"; $dbPassword =""; define("C_DB_TYPE","mysql"); define("C_DB_HOST",$dbHost); define("C_DB_NAME",$dbName); define("C_DB_USER",$dbUser); define("C_DB_PASS",$dbPassword); define("C_OFFLINE_IM_TBL", "Offline_IM"); include("mysql.php"); $DbLink = new DB; $method = $_SERVER["PATH_INFO"]; if ($method == "/SaveMessage/") { $msg = $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA; $start = strpos($msg, "?>"); if ($start != -1) { $start+=2; $msg = substr($msg, $start); $parts = split("[<>]", $msg); $to_agent = $parts[12]; $DbLink->query("insert into ".C_OFFLINE_IM_TBL." (uuid, message) values ('" . mysql_escape_string($to_agent) . "', '" . mysql_escape_string($msg) . "')"); echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><boolean>true</boolean>"; } else { echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><boolean>false</boolean>"; } exit; } if ($method == "/RetrieveMessages/") { $parms = $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA; $parts = split("[<>]", $parms); $agent_id = $parts[6]; $DbLink->query("select message from ".C_OFFLINE_IM_TBL." where uuid='" . mysql_escape_string($agent_id) . "'"); echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?><ArrayOfGridInstantMessage xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\">"; while(list($message) = $DbLink->next_record()) { echo $message; } echo "</ArrayOfGridInstantMessage>"; $DbLink->query("delete from ".C_OFFLINE_IM_TBL." where uuid='" . mysql_escape_string($agent_id) . "'"); exit; } ?>
[edit] STEP 4: OfflineMessageModule
Shutdown your simulator.
Edit the OpenSim.ini [Messaging] block.
An example configuration is shown below:
[Messaging] ; Control which region module is used for instant messaging. ; Default is InstantMessageModule (this is the name of the core IM module as well as the setting) InstantMessageModule = InstantMessageModule ; MessageTransferModule = MessageTransferModule OfflineMessageModule = OfflineMessageModule OfflineMessageURL = http://yourserver/offline.php MuteListModule = MuteListModule MuteListURL = http://yourserver/mute.php ForwardOfflineGroupMessages = true
P.D: The MuteListModule and URL must be uncommented in order for the offline module to work, even if there is no mute.php file in the web folder.
Once the edits are made, save your OpenSim.ini and restart your simulator.
[edit] Using the OfflineMessageModule
Login and try to send a message to an offline person. You should see the message: "System: User is not logged in. Message saved."
If you see "Message not saved." check your web server error log.
If you are using XAMPP or WAMP or other apache based webserver and you get error
messages like, File does not exist: /var/www/offline_im/RetrieveMessages/.
Then you need to enable the mod_rewrite.so module in apache.
You also need to create .htaccess file that's placed inside the directory where you have also the offline php files.
the .htaccess file would look like this.
RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} "!^/index.php$" RewriteRule "^(.*)$" "index.php" [L]
Check the database Offline_IM table to verify whether or not offline.php has written a record there.
Next time the person you messaged logs in, they will get the message and the database will be updated.
[edit] Testing Notes
