 I know it is some kind of hack, but currently there is no other better
 ways to implement it, so I store such information in the buddy structure.
 See my [comment:17 comment] for a better solution (encapsulating all the
 necessary parameters into a structure, like PurpleMessage).

 And I don't understand the meaning of another conversation here. Why a
 user has more than one conversation with the same buddy ?

 that's a disadvantage of the UI, the protocol is using the passport all
 the time.

 The debug message looks like this:
 {{{
 (19:05:38) msn: Message SB RECV:
 {MIME-Version: 1.0

 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

 P4-Context: TestName

 X-MMS-IM-Format: FN=SimSun; EF=; CO=0; CS=86; PF=0

 ok
 }
 }}}

 Where is the passport of the actual message sender ? I didn't see it.
