Try doing the PresenceSend after the RosterRequest, and then add a delay
before checking the online method.  The reason for this is that the online
notifications are not send by the server immediately, but some time after
the initial PresenceSend (the exact duration is not possible to determine,
because it's up to the remote server to respond to the probe requests in
it's own time).
