And it will only sync the messages you’ve chosen to share with each contact. For example, if you invite your contacts X and Y to join a forum, and they accept, then messages in that forum will be synced with X or Y whenever they’re within range. So you can receive forum messages from X in one location, travel to another location, and deliver those messages to Y. + * > But this doesn’t work for private messages: they’re only synchronized directly between the sender and recipient. +* https://code.briarproject.org/briar/briar/-/wikis/FAQ + * > No. Unlike with adding contacts at a distance and its 48 hours timeout, there's no such thing for introductions.
