[OTR-users] question/suggestion around resending failed messages

Does anyone have occasional problems with messages that don't go through 
being automatically resent over and over?  This happens to me most often 
with the Yahoo network... sometimes with copy/pasted messages containing 
html links or sometimes with messages that are too long.  I believe OTR does 
the resending.  But, when the error with the message persists, the 
message-resending process just keeps looping.

This doesn't happen to me often, but when it does, I find myself having to 
quit/close gaim to stop it from continuing.

Is there any limit to the number of resends that will be attempted when 
errors occur during sending a message?  Or, if not, can a limit be added 
(like say... 10 times max?) so that this looping won't happen?

Thanks very much for the great software.  I use this every day and can no 
longer IM without it...  ;-)
