[OTR-users] Question & Answer authentication on Yahoo

[sdenies at dcnteam.com]

I attempted to use the "Question and answer" authentication with a 
coworker today and was unable to get it to work.  After starting an 
unauthenticated chat, I would send the question, and he would never 
receive it.  Similarly, he would send a question and I wouldn't receive 
it.  We were able to send messages back and forth however.  After we 
authenticated via fingerprint validation, I tried it again with a 
different question.  He received the question, but it timed out after he 
responded.  What would cause this?

In the past, I have noticed that otr/pidgin/yahoo silently drops messages 
larger than a certain length.  Could this be it?
