Messages from a MUC domain are silently dropped if they are received via carbon copy
Problem description
Messages of type "normal" and "chat" (others may apply too) which are sent from a MUC domain and delivered to Poezio via Carbons are not shown, at all. They are silently dropped. There is nothing written to errors.log.
Examples
(Note that I redacted my JIDs to be user@example/poezio and user@example/other-client. I also reformatted the XML for readability.)
Message which was shown (Directly, from MUC domain)
<message from="muc.poez.io" type="normal" to="user@example.com/poezio" id="f5bbed2d-3922-411b-be8b-c3caeb37b340-8A8E3">

</message>How to reproduce
You need a prosody server for this, sorry. You also need to have two clients connected to your account. Let us assume that your account is user@example.com and your clients are at user@example.com/poezio and user@example.com/something-else. Your account needs to be directly connected to your prosody.
-
In the prosody telnet console, enter (remember that the leading
>is important):>prosody.core_post_stanza(hosts["example.com"], require"util.stanza".message({type="normal",to="user@example.com/poezio",from="muc.poez.io"}):body("Hello"))Observe that the message is visible in Poezio.
-
Next open the
/xml_tabin poezio and then execute in the Prosody telnet console:>prosody.core_post_stanza(hosts["example.com"], require"util.stanza".message({type="normal",to="user@example.com/something-else",from="muc.poez.io"}):body("Hello"))Observe that the message is not shown in Poezio, despite it shows up in the
/xml_tab. -
Try the same with a different sender:
>prosody.core_post_stanza(hosts["example.com"], require"util.stanza".message({type="normal",to="user@example.com/something-else",from="example.com"}):body("Hello"))Note that this time the message is visible.
