Time for setting an automatic status "Away"

By default, if a user does not take any actions on his computer (does not press keys and move a mouse), then MyChat think that a person is absent on his workplace and automatically sets this status in the chat. You can control time for setting "Away" status (in minutes).

 

Maximum time for storing postponed messages

As you can send messages even to offline users, you can set a time after which unreceived messages will be deleted from a database due to the expiration time.

 

Maximum number of postponed messages

This setting is similar to the previous one. The main difference is that it analyzes not the expiration time but the number of sent offline messages and sets a limit.

 

Limit the number of registrations from one MAC address

You can limit registrations for network users by a hardware MAC address of a network interface (for example, not more than two from one address). However, notice that only MyChat for Windows can determine a MAC address. Also, a user with administrator rights can change the MAC address of his network card to any other.
