What happens to an xml-rpc message sent to an object in a sim that is in the process of being rebooted or is off the grid for whatever reason?

Is the message queued and delivered once the sim comes back online or is it discarded?

That's interesting. I've been witnessing cases where people purchase something on the website, get a communications timeout, but then the item is delivered like 5 minutes later.

I thought it might happen during sim reboots, but it must be something more like when a sim falls into a havok deep think.

Thanks.

That's extremely odd. Hrrrm. I'll have to do some experiments myself. I use email almost exclusively, since it has an inbuilt redelivery mechanism.
