Python Skype4Py message status remains 'SENDING'

Question

import Skype4Py

skype=Skype4Py.Skype()

skype.Client.Start()

skype.Attach()

skype.SendMessage('echo123','Test')

The code works, but for some reason, when I send a message, its status remains SENDING, therefore I am not able to send any messages.

Edit : turns out the method sends the message as soon as the contact is online.

Answer 1

Messages are always sent when the user is online.
