How many custom states can be defined?
It seems to me that when I try to define more than 4 states (exactly the number of your samples) Communicator fails in loading them, isn't it?

Andrea - you're right, 4 is the maximum number of states. The Communicator deployment guide (from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=f1d1a947-6eff-4ac4-8878-f0a77894ac99&displaylang=en&tm) says:
Configuration files have the following properties:
• Custom states can be configured with: Available, Busy, and Do Not Disturb.
• The availability attribute determines which Presence button is associated with the status text of the custom state. In the following example, the status text, Working from Home, is displayed to the right of the Presence button.
• The maximum length of the status text is 64 characters.
• A maximum of four custom presence states can be added.
