Yeah, seems that the message comes in on the switchboard. Clearing the who property is then the best solution, since it makes the sb available as a spare, so the next conversation can be set up q bit quicker. Yay! :-)
Should be a pretty trivial fix. Too bad it didn't come in before the 1.0 release.

[91] should fix this problem.

Most likely this can be solved by resetting the switchboard structure (clearing the who "property") so new messages aren't queued to a spare switchboard when the error comes in. Don't know for sure if the error can be easily connected to the switchboard though... If not, this could be a PITA to solve in a clean way.
