I assume the $event->from is of A.

There are some complications in running 2 yahoo entities
simultaneously (ie using the same yahoo script). The point being
that $yahoo->start begins an infinite loop (which continuously
queries a port for any incoming messages). Hence if you start A
before B then you might not be able to receive any message for
B(or A) depending on which entity loops on. THis is why A doesnt
get a message when B sends to it and instead receives it after
you logon as an offline message (as the server knows that the
client did not accept the message and it keeps it in the offline
archive).
