<p class="MsoNormal">I would submit a full patch, but I need somebody to review the changes, as C isn’t my first language and I’m not familiar with the OTR code as a whole. Here’s the list of changes:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All of this applies to <b>message.c / otrl_message_receiving / case OTRL_MSGTYPE_NOTOTR</b>:<o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span></span><![endif]>This case needs to try a refresh of the conversation. Obviously, if the states are confused, leaving them in that state is NOT the best policy. It should instead immediately start an encrypted refresh. I think this would be
a call to the “go_encrypted” sub.<o:p></o:p></p>

</span></span></span><![endif]>After the refresh, the previously unencrypted side should resend the message. OTR Messages don’t get flashed by Pidgin at least, and probably others. As such, a U->E conversation gets lost until hours later when I happen to
see all of the collected messages.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Can somebody please make a patch as such? Hell, I’ll test it out as long as I can get a Windows compiled binary of it. This
