           Summary: telepathy-idle shouldn't choose a nickname before
                    authenticating on IRC server
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: 5.6
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: idle
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: nalimilan at club.fr

Every time I start Empathy and it connects to irc.ubuntu.com, I get a chat
window from NickServ telling me:
> NickServ: This nickname is registered. Please choose a different
> nickname, or identify via /msg NickServ identify <password>.
> NickServ: You are now identified for milanbv.

It seems Telepathy is not authenticating fast enough for the server. I don't
know how this works, but maybe there's a way to send the password at the same
time as you ask for a nickname, so that we don't get this useless and annoying
dialog. (Empathy devs told me this is a problem with Telepathy rather than
their client.)

Or it that a bug in the server?


I'm using telepathy-idle 0.1.6-1 on Ubuntu 10.10.
