The keys doesn't change after verification, do they? Can I export the
keys from Pidgin and then decrypt the messages? If this is not
possible the whole purpose with storing your IM history online becomes
pointless.

Besides, I would like to have the same key on several machines (a mix
of Adium and Pidgin), can I export/import them somehow?
