Cant send message to people not in my roster

Hi,

is this a bug or a "feature". I cant send message to people (or
entities/resources) who are not in my roster/contact list. I use "New
Message"/ Ctrl+N an typed a JID who is not in my roster (actually it was
someone in my roster, but I want to write to a special resource.
I use Gossip 0.28 on Ubuntu Hardy.

If it's not intended I will file a bug.

Regards,

Keywan

It depends.

Do you have multiple accounts set up? If so, is one definitely selected?
If not, then it is a bug I think.

It might well be a bug with trying to use a resource in the ID though.

No. Now I recognised the "Note"-label. Maybe the UI could somehow
improved, sometimes users could be really blind.. I just paid attention
for the inactive button and didn't care for the stuff at the upper parts
of the dialog. What do you think about some kind of interactive note,
like when you push Caps-Lock during GDM Login.

This would be cool. Only checking node and host of the JID, but not the
resource. I don't think there are much cases where different resources
are added to different account, but this could be a pitfall.

Yea, actually, that's not a bad idea. Should be simple to do.
Want to write the patch? :)
