Tells to offline char

I was just wondering if I give a tell to a offline char for how long will that tell be buffered?

umm..... until Venus is in its fourth cycle. Actually I think its until they log back on.

If your name is in the "known friends list" of the person you give an offline tell, it will drop to the "unkown list". Might be good to know ..

As far as I'm aware, until ey log in next. There is a queue for offline tells, and if that is full, your message won't be kept (but you do get told of this).
