           Summary: OTR  plugin keeps using encryption keys when user goes
                    offline
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: notes at glokal.eu


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

After having established an OTR session Kopete keeps using the session keys
even after a user goes offline. If one now sends offline messages to this user
he or she will not be able to decrypt the message since the previous session
key is no longer available.

A solution would be to terminate the OTR session automatically when the other
party goes offline and hasn't terminated the session. For now the user has to
remember to end the session manually through Tools>OTR Settings>End OTR
Session. I used the "Opportunistic" setting and this happens between two Kopete
clients. Adium seems to terminate the session before going offline so no action
is required by Kopete.
