Description James Carman 2008-03-19 19:42:05 UTC
Version:           unknown (using 3.5.7, compiled sources)
Compiler:          Target: i586-mandriva-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.22.18-desktop-1mdv

Large messages are silently lost.

I have tested this in ICQ only. If a message is sent and blocked by the server/protocol then a error is sent to the client. 
In Pigin, or trillian it says "message was to large. message rejected". In Kopete this message/error code is silently ignored. Pigin and kopete both do not tell the sender when the message was rejected. I am assuming that this is because the protocol/server doesn't inform them.

The server does inform us, but we didn't parse them.
Good news is that we parse them now and we inform the user, this will be in next Kopete version (in KDE 4.2)
