I'm pretty sure this has been brought up before; let's see if I
remember.

So you're saying that if the OTR plugin is installed, then even if
you're *not* speaking with an OTR-enabled buddy, Message Splitter is not
being invoked?  I'm not sure what would be happening there, as if you're
not speaking OTR, pidgin-otr's process_sending_im is a no-op.

(I'll also note that if you *are* speaking OTR, then OTR itself does
message splitting.)

Can you be more explicit about the failure you're seeing, possibly with
a call trace?  (And what version of pidgin-otr are you using?)

Thanks,
