More IM trouble

Has anyone had more IM trouble since this lastest update? Apparently it is the case of "online but not" as people were seeing me offline even though I was very much on. Also a IM was sent to me but I did not receive it until in the morning when I checked my email (it was sent as if I was offline even though I was very much online). Then I logged in see if I would get it, and sure enough it came though just fine. While this was a problem occasionally in the past for me it has not happened for awhile now...UNTIL this past update. And I never had the system say I was offline to others when I was still online.

The odd thing is, I was IM'ing people shortly after this other IM was sent (that I got as email and when I logged in this morning), and it was 2 way communication without any problems. But perhaps that was because I started the contact?

Yesterday, with the latest update, I was having a conversation with someone.. several of the messages went straight to email. Makes it hard to follow a conversation in game.

Other times, instead of going to email, it waits until I log in next. Then again, I've also had cases where a face to face conversation the messages would be delayed by sometimes hours before popping up on the screen.

It's annoying when someone's open channel text pops up with a question, long after they've logged off.

This is not new. Online but off, or offline but on has been aroud since 1.9. I've submitted at least two bug reports and talked to a Linden on Live Help about it.
I've had very few instances of those other issues, but not as much as "on/offline" issues.
