Description (last modified by )
HowtoSkype says:
Versions of Skype higher (and maybe lower) than 4.0.0.8 might not be sending first messages in a brand-new chat to bitlbee (i.e. when someone contacts you for the first time since client start). Skype just doesn't forward notifications about these to dbus for some reason.
For now clients < 4.3 cannot login, and it's time to fix this bug I think.
For a brand new chat with other user, first message look's like this:
CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 NAME #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 STATUS DIALOG CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 STATUS DIALOG CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 DIALOG_PARTNER fozzy_bot CHATMEMBER 99215 ROLE USER CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 MYROLE USER CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 MEMBERS fozzy_bot fozzy_inside CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 FRIENDLYNAME Bender Bot CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 ACTIVEMEMBERS fozzy_bot fozzy_inside CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 TIMESTAMP 1407922908 CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 ADDER fozzy_bot CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 STATUS DIALOG CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 POSTERS fozzy_bot CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 ACTIVITY_TIMESTAMP 1407922911
and has no
CHATMESSAGE <id> BODY <string>
But we can receive last messages like this:
GET CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 CHATMESSAGES CHAT #fozzy_bot/$fozzy_inside;3affbef0fa6e58a1 CHATMESSAGES 100201 GET CHATMESSAGE 100201 BODY CHATMESSAGE 100201 BODY first message test
Question is how to detect if need to send GET CHAT x CHATMESSAGES or not?

It breaks previous behaviour, when messages is not marked as read. And I haven't tested it in long term. Also I have noticed that not all dialogs sends CHAT message when someone invite you in chat, dunno if its related to this bug. I will try to gather some info in few days.
