Help Connection lost when phone sleeps?

[fotos]

I previously had my gchat setup to be online all the time.. for some reason, I get logged off when my phone sleeps, or within a short preiod of time after my phone sleeps. I also do not get email notifications when the screen is off. I have to unlock the screen to get my updates now.

Any idea how to change this back?

I was also wondering about how to change the frequency of checking email and other updates, etc. to save some battery life

There is a setting in google talk that will set your status to away when the screen is off, is that what you're referring to? Or are you really being signed out?
