Get alerted of missed messages on conversation close with ReadThis

Ever closed a conversation right before receiving a message? Did you have to go through your chatlogs and find out what the contact said? Did you realise that your chat logs didn't even log the message because you closed the conversation too fast?

This has happened to me quite often in the past, but recently, I installed a script for Messenger Plus! live which got rid of this problem. You can tell the script to show messages that were sent within a certain time (in milliseconds) before closing the conversation window. If you close a conversation window in that time frame (after receiving a message) you will be automatically alerted of the message with a Messenger Plus! live toast. Clicking the toast will open a conversation window with the contact.
There is currently only one known bug on the page.

Known bugs:
-Toasts can not be clicked if the contact uses a StuffPlug 3 chat-only name
in a multi-convo.


I've also notice though, that the script will popup a toast if it's your own message that was sent. Hopefully it'll be fixed in the future!
