+<h3>Enabling chat histories</h3>
+
+<p>
+By default, Prosody will send out messages received only to the first available clients.
+That means that if you have your desktop client turned off and your cell phone receives a message, it will <em>not</em> be available to the desktop client when you start it.
+</p>
+
+<p>While this may be preferred in some cases, enable the MAM module (Message Archive Management) to have the server hold on messages and sync them to all clients.</p>
+
+<p>
+Within the <code>modules_enabled</code> block, you can uncomment the <code>mam</code> line to enable it.
+You can see other settings for this module <a href="https://prosody.im/doc/modules/mod_mam">here</a> like, for example, how long a server should hold on to message histories for synching.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Note also that Prosody comes with the <code>carbons</code> activated module by default, which is related. This will send received messages to <em>all</em> active clients (your phone and desktop), although it will not save messages like MAM for clients not online or to be added later.
