Comment(by darkrain42):

 'message' is not a valid type for a <message> stanza. See rfc3921 2.1.1 or
 rfc3921bis07 5.2.2. I don't know why sendxmpp defaults to that type (IMHO,
 that's an insane default).

 You ''can'' change the type in sendxmpp, per this note at the very top of
 the homepage: '''Supported message types are 'message', 'chat',
 'headline'. Default message type is 'message'.'''

 That said, the RFCs do specify that an unknown type attribute MUST be
 treated as 'normal' (which Pidgin treats the same as 'chat'). I'm
 attaching a patch that does that.
