buddy pounce while away

yesterday i learned how dangerous buddy pounce can be.  i have it set
up to IM my wife "hi" when she signs on...the problem is that i was
away at a meeting when she came on yesterday.  all hell broke lose
when i didnt reply back to her messages because she thought i was
ignoring her.  :-)  that's probably more than you all needed to know,
but my point is that it would be nice to be able to have buddy pounce
only send a message when you're *not* away.
