Description
When trying to send a file to an offline contact Spark is showing the message:
The user is offline. Will auto-send "firefox_icon_new.jpg" when user comes back online.
But when the recipient becomes online Spark is not sending the file, it just repeats the above message in the chat window. Should try to resend the file, or at least should inform the sender, that it cant send files to an offline contact, as some other clients do.
UPDATE:
It seems that it works with the latest Spark version and Spark is indeed trying to resend the file when a contact is online, but the other part fails to receive anything. Spark client is only getting the message "You have just been sent offline file(s)." and Exodus is trying to receive the file, but fails.

liujustme has provided a way to fix this (patched and compiled java file so far), though he's not sure this is a right solution. Also, he;s patching smack, so maybe this is not Spark issue.
