Encryption and IM changement
Posted: Mon Sep 14, 2009 8:06 am
Hello,
I encountered a problem with OTR, I don't know if it's the protocol itself, normal behaviour or Adium's implementation. I chatted with a OTR-enabled Adium buddy (I lastest beta, him lastest stable), then I used eBuddy to connect to my MSN account.
I discovered that I was unable to chat with the same buddy because I received encrypted messages that, obviously, eBuddy was unable to decrypt, so chat was impossible. From a security point-of-view, it makes sense but to my mind i shouldn't prevent someone from chatting, provided a warning explaining the situation.
Regards,
Redvivi
