What about DeliveryStatusTemporarilyFailed?

For the steps mentioned in the above linked bug report, when I flushed
my iptables rules after getting the delivery reports, some of the
messages were successfully delivered to the other person almost two
minutes after the delivery reports.

Btw, Kopete adds an icon next to the messages it's sending/sending
failed. It seems to work only in some of their own themes, though. Not
even for all the ones that come with it. So yeah.

Refefences: ChatMessagePart::changeMessageStateElement (in
kdenetwork/kopete/kopete/chatwindow/chatmessgepart.cpp),
ChatWindowStyle::readStyleFiles (in
kdenetwork/kopete/kopete/chatwindow/kopetechatwindowstyle.cpp) and
"find . -name StateError.html" in /usr/share/apps/kopete/styles.
