IIRC, the ejabberd server will wait until you are "present". Only then it will send you all messages so far received for you.

Really? The old Google Talk service used to do this, but I didn't think ejabberd did. There's a bunch of non-IM use-cases which need presence-less messaging.

That ejabberd does something doesn't mean it's the proper behaviour. Maybe it's a bug?

Seems like Prosody has the same behavior. Ran into just this morning.
