           Summary: All sent messages get lost, from the inclusion of some
                    URL, until chat window is closed
           Product: kopete
           Version: 1.0.80
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Chat Window
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: public.oss at xapaho.com


Version:           1.0.80 (using KDE 4.5.5) 
OS:                Linux

When including "some" form of URL in a chat message, the current message is
lost without warning, as well as all subsequent messages sent using the same
chat window.

Using Bonjour protocol over LAN only, don't know if this is applicable to any
other.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start a normal conversation over Bonjour/LAN, messages are sent fine
2. send any message that include the following URL (alone or at any position)
  
http://www.hoaxbuster.com/hoaxteam/forum_contributions.php?idForum=1234&idMess=5678
   it get lost
3. send further simple text, it also gets lost
4. close the chat window, open a new one and send more messages, they are sent

Actual Results:  
All sent messages are "lost" from this point onwards (they don't reach the
recipient, but appear however in the conversation log, while incoming messages
are still received and displayed in the chat window).

No warning is displayed, so the only way to realize this is ... discussing with
the recipient by other means.

Closing the chat window and opening a new one, restore the send function.

Expected Results:  
All messages are sent disregarding to their contents.
If not, at least some warning should be displayed.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64
Compiler: gcc

Kopete as installed by default under Fedora 14 KDE.

(cf. severity (?) not sure how BZ's meaning of "data loss" is applicable here.
Still, I assume this kind of data loss just defeats the whole purpose of using
kopete in this context)
