|

<p>At the time of original writing of this XEP, many XMPP servers
|
||||
handle message stanzas sent to a user@host (or "bare") JID with no
|
||||
resource by delivering that message only to the resource with the
|
||||
highest priority for the target user. Some server implementations,
|
||||
however, have chosen to send these messages to all of the online
|
||||
resources for the target user. If the target user is online with
|
||||
multiple resources when the original message is sent, a conversation
|
||||
ensues on one of the user's devices; if the user subsequently
|
||||
switches devices, parts of the conversation may end up on the
|
||||
alternate device, causing the user to be confused, misled, or
|
||||
annoyed.</p>

<p>Clients that implement Carbons MAY take special use of

&xep0085; notifications.</p>
|
||||
<p>It is RECOMMENDED that upon receiving an outbound <em>gone</em>
|
||||
chat state (as a carbon copy) for a given conversation, that
|
||||
conversation be removed from user display as if the user on the
|
||||
copied client had terminated the conversation. In order to
|
||||
prevent unwanted termination of conversations on other resources,
|
||||
clients SHOULD NOT send <em>gone</em> chat states on logout, but
|
||||
instead SHOULD count on the unavailable presence to convey the change
|
||||
in attention.</p>
|
||||
<p>Upon receiving an outbound notification of any chat state other
|
||||
than <em>gone</em>, the copied client MAY conclude that the
|
||||
sending client has taken responsibility for the conversation, and
|
||||
make appropriate user interface modifications. For example,
|
||||
notifications could be muted on non-primary devices.</p>
|
||||
<p>Note that &xep0085; recommends sending chat state
|
||||
notifications as chat type messages, which means that they will be
|
||||
subject to Carbon-copying. This is intentional.</p>
|
||||
<p>Additionally, clients that implement Carbons MAY take special use of chat state notifications:</p>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>Upon receiving an inbound or outbound <em>gone</em> chat state (as a carbon copy) for a given conversation, that conversation SHOULD be removed from user display as if the user on the copied client had terminated the conversation. In order to prevent unwanted termination of conversations on other resources, clients SHOULD NOT send <em>gone</em> chat states on logout, but instead SHOULD count on the unavailable presence to convey the change in attention.</li>
|
||||
<li>Upon receiving an outbound notification of any chat state other than <em>gone</em>, the copied client MAY conclude that the sending client has taken responsibility for the conversation, and make appropriate user interface modifications. For example, notifications could be suppressed on devices receiving the Carbon-copies.</li>

<p>When a receiving server attempts to deliver a forked message,
|
||||
and that message bounces with an error for any reason, the
|
||||
receiving server MUST NOT forward that error back to the original
|
||||
sender. The receiving server SHOULD use the sent element in the
|

bounce to determine that an error is from a forked message.</p>

<p>This rule is used to prevent some of the half-failure modes
|

that have been an issue in other prototocols.</p>

<p>Clients that automatically respond to messages for any reason

(e.g. when in DND presence state) MUST take adequate care when

enabling Carbons in order to prevent storms or loops. Carbon
|

copies of outbound messages MUST NOT be auto-replied to under any
|
||||
circumstances. Forked inbound messages SHOULD NOT be auto-replied

to, unless the client has some way of knowing that the receiver

will not receive more than one auto-reply from other similar

clients for the same user.</p>

undertaken advisedly. More complicated mechanisms for controlling

the Carbon-copying or forking of individual conversations may need

to be added to deal with mobile clients in the future.</p>
