Hmm, interesting.  I think there are three times otrl_message_sending
would output the default query message:

- If you pass the string "?OTR?" or similar *into* otrl_message_sending.

- If your policy has OTRL_POLICY_REQUIRE_ENCRYPTION set, but the context
  msgstate is still at OTRL_MESSAGE_PLAINTEXT.

- If you receive an OTR Error messaage, and your policy has
  OTRL_POLICY_ERROR_START_AKE set.

Could you possibly step through otrl_message_sending and see which it
thinks is happening?

Thanks,
