It's not a good idea to set this value very low, it will cause too much useless traffic when an IM-server is down for a few hours. + Tell BitlBee after how many seconds it should attempt to bring a broken IM-connection back up. + + + + This can be one integer, for a constant delay. One can also set it to something like "10*10", which means wait for ten seconds on the first reconnect, multiply it by ten on every failure. Once successfully connected, this delay is re-set to the initial value. With < you can give a maximum delay. -- cgit v1.2.3
