Hi,

pgp cryptography with icq in kopete seem to have several problems with the maximum length of icq messages.

So i would like to set cryptography-key not for the hole metacontact, but for each protocol.

If someone have several msn-ids then he may have several pgp-keys for theses adresses too. So i need to choose for each ids the correct key.


thx

I understand the message length problem. I do not think, however, that public keys should be associated with pure-contacts. One meta-contact represents one person, and therefore one public key. If the people you chat with uses multiple key pairs, they are the ones at fault. Key pairs are meant to be a digital representation of one's identity, therefore individuals should only have one. I am looking into the message length issue. That is the real bug. I suggest marking this as WONTFIX. Opinions welcome.

Since no one has responded, I will shut this bug down myself.
