What happens when a client doesn logout for several days (which is a common scenario for some of our users)? Do users get address book updates without signing out and back in?
If a Communicator client stays online and never signs out, new updates (probably delta download files, but possibly full files) are downloaded. It happens at 12am UTC time, if the local database on the client is outdated (yesterday’s date) and the delta has been generated by ABS. If the delta hasn’t been generated by ABS, the client will keep trying (using an exponential back-off between tries) until it maxes out. At that point an error will be shown at the bottom of the main UI.
