reproduction (copied from jitsi-dev-mailing-list-thread:

A - user jt2 did not yet start jitsi

A.1. user jt1 starts up jitsi, logs in and sends a message to user jt1
(who's jitsi is not yet running) - using ejabberd admin uif, the message is visible

A.2. user jt2 starts up jitsi, logs in
  => no message is displayed and message is removed from ejabberd's storage

B - user jt2's jisti is running but jt2 is offline/online via tools->options

B.1. user jt2 goes offline via tools->options removed the tick at his account

B.2. user jt1 sends offline message which can be viewed using ejabberd admin if

B.2. user jt2 goes online via tools->options adds the tick at his account
  => no message is displayed and message is removed from ejabberd's memory

C - user jt2's jisti is running but jt2 is offline/online via 'status-menuebox'

C.1. user jt2 goes offline by clicking on onlie and selecting offline

C.2. user jt1 sends message

C.3. user jt2 goes online by clicking offline and selecting online
  => message is displayed an removed from ejabberd's memory

Additional info:
- the behavior A and B also applies to the 'initial authorization handshake' which only seems to be possible when both users are online at the same time. (re-requesting authorization does not work as well - at least in our environment).
- neither pidgin nor psi nor gibberbot (on android) shows this behavior - offline messages are always displayed by these clients.

I have a reasonable suspicion that this issue might be originated at one of our network components (an appliance) and i'm going to verify this next week.

ew info: no, this issue seems not to be related to our appliance
testcase B:
client jitsi 2.3.4765 on linux (debian 7) - offline messages ar displayed sometimes and sometimes not
client jitsi 2.3.4764 on windows 7 - offline messages were never displayed
ejabberd.log: i cannot see any difference (except date/time and port numbers) between B and C

I tend to state that offline messages are always displayed by jitsi runing on a linux machine (debian 7)
