Description Alexander Potashev 2015-06-25 12:18:02 UTC

When I send a message to a contact who has multiple jabber clients running on different computers, only one client receives it. Looks like KTP sends the message to one of the jabber resource of the contact. I would like to always send messages to all jabber resources, so that the person reads a message as soon as he is at any of his computers.

This might be relevant: http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0280.html

As the first step we can implement choosing the destination jabber resource. AFAIR, Kopete has this possibility to select one jabber resource to talk to.

Reproducible: Always

Thanks for the report.

This is however a report for telepathy-gabble, the xmpp backend and as such should be filed at http://bugs.freedesktop.org - product telepathy - component gabble. 

KDE Telepathy is "just" the UI layer on top of Telepathy, we don't do any protocol related stuff (like XEPs).

In case telepathy-gabble already implements that XEP, we can see how we could add teh UI for it, but till then, this just won't be possible, sorry.
