When you connect to a station that has away set, you are asked if you'd like to leave a message. As you compose, you are then given the choice of send or send and disconnect.
Enhancement - If you chose send and disconnect, when you receive telemetry that the remote user is typing, cancel the disconnect.
Its a VARA limitation. Once a DISCONNECT command was sent to the modem - there is no turning back.
Its not in the VarAC hand.
Archving request.
