 Hello, i have a problem with Ressource/device-handling in XMPP..[[BR]]
 I have myself in the contact list to share memos to myself for different
 devices. Now having different Ressources for the same XMPP-Address at the
 same time seemes to break behaviour in different encryption plugins, as
 OTR doesn't know for what ressources to encrypt for and lurch works fine
 but always msg'es an annoying error message on every message sent because
 the packets to the own ressource/device can not be decrypted:
 https://github.com/gkdr/lurch/issues/47 [[BR]]
 I'd therefore like to tell libpurple to send only packages to other
 devices and drop packages for the own ressource to having this working
 right.[[BR]]
 I tried to work this around by blocking single Ressources but the blocking
 feature of pidgin seemes to redirect globally to the server for all
 ressources instead of blocking the own ressource just locally.[[BR]]
 An other workaround would be to add different Ressources to the contact
 list but that seemes to ignore the Ressource and just adds the jabber-id
 for all Ressources to the list.
