	<title>Overview</title>
	<para>
		This modules provides offline message storage for the &sername;. It 
		stores received messages for an offline user and sends them when the 
		user becomes online.
	</para>
	<para>
		For each message, the modules stores <quote>Request-URI</quote> 
		(<quote>R-URI</quote>) only if it is a complete address of record 
		(<quote>username@hostname</quote>), &uri; from <quote>To</quote> 
		header, &uri; from <quote>From</quote> header, incoming time,
		expiration time, content type and body of the message. If 
		<quote>R-URI</quote> is not an address of record (it might be the 
		contact address for current &sip; session) the &uri;
		from <quote>To</quote> header will be used as <abbrev>R-URI</abbrev>.
	</para>
	<para>
		When the expiration time passed, the message is discarded from 
		database.  Expiration time is computed based on incoming time and 
		one of the module's parameters.
	</para>
	<para>
		Every time when a user registers with &ser;, the module is looking in 
		database for offline messages intended for that user. All of them will 
		be sent to contact address provided in REGISTER request.
	</para>
	<para>
		It may happen the &sip; user to be registered but his &sip; User Agent 
		to have no support for MESSAGE request. In this case it should be used 
		the <quote>failure_route</quote> to store the undelivered requests.

		<para>
		The method stores certain parts of the current &sip; request (it 
		should be called when the request type is MESSAGE and the destination 
		user is offline or his &ua does not support MESSAGE requests). If the 
		user is registered with a UA which does not support MESSAGE requests 
		you should not use mode=<quote>0</quote> if you have
		changed the request uri with the contact address of user's &ua;.
		</para>
		<para>Meaning of the parameters is as follows:</para>
		<itemizedlist>
		<listitem>
			<para>
			<emphasis>mode</emphasis> - specifies what to save as R-URI.
			</para>
			<itemizedlist>
			<listitem>
				<para>
				<quote>0</quote> - first check if new_uri is an address of
				record. If yes, then use it and store it as R-URI, otherwise 
				look at R-URI and, if necessary, at &uri; from 
				<quote>To</quote> header.
				</para>
			</listitem>
			<listitem>
				<para>
				<quote>1</quote> - look first at R-URI and then at &uri; from

		<title><function moreinfo="none">m_dump()</function></title>
		<para>
		The method sends stored messages for the &sip; user that is going to

		when a REGISTER request is received and the <quote>Expire</quote>

		<title>Database setup</title>
		<para>
		Before running &ser; with msilo, you have to setup the database table 
		where the module will store the message. For that, if the table was 
		not created by the installation script or you choose to install 
		everything by yourself you can use the following <acronym>SQL</acronym> 
		script (good for MySQL) as template. Database and table name can be 
		set with module parameters so they can be changed, but the name of
		the columns must be as they are in the next <acronym>SQL</acronym> 
		script.
