Fortrolig kommunikation

Dette plugin lader dig kryptere konversation med andre, som også bruger en klient med OTR-funktionalitet. Aktiverer du dette plugin, så får du et ikon med en lås i chat-vinduet. Det lader dig starte en OTR-session. Før du kan starte OTR-sessioner skal du generere en privat nøgle til hver konto. Denne operation kan let udføres i plugin'ets konfigurationsdialog.

Details

OTR provides encryption and authentication (if the fingerprint of the other participant is accepted) but the messages aren't signed, so participant can deny the conversation.

Policy

Plugin offers four policies to decide when start sessions:

Always
OTR session will be started in each conversation
Manual
OTR session will be started only manually
Opportunistic
OTR session will be started if the other client supports it
Never
OTR session will never be started

Clients

The wikipedia page about OTR has a list of clients that support it.
