User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:25.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/25.0 Iceweasel/25.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20131102022523
Steps to reproduce:
1. Log into my Jabber account from two devices (phone, laptop) simultaneously
2. Start chat conversation
Actual results:
3a. Only one logged-in client receives the conversation
Expected results:
3b. All logged-in clients should have received a copy of both ends of the conversation.
This is described in http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0280.html , and it's very useful if you'd like to use a Jabber account from multiple devices. Otherwise, the latest reply, on average, is always on the wrong device, at least in my experience.

I should add that this should likely be optional.

I used |_isCarbonsEnabled| flag to indicate that we have enabled carbons successfully and to reduce the recursive checking of |getElement| to search for forwarded, sent and received.

Check this later to ensure carbon message get handled correctly even if they arrive when you don't expect them.

Don't use from for this as it is likely to cause accidental errors in the future due to the misleading name.
Instead, something like
let convJid = isSent? to : from
(or norm(to) : norm(from) if that is what's needed)
and then replace "from" in the following code where "convJid" is needed now.

Does everything in onMessageStanza make sense for
- sent stanzas?
- carbon stanzas?
You should probably be careful e.g. with invitations.

Would be better and more performant to check just for "sent" or "received". If either one is present, it's a carbon message. Then if you can't getElement("forwarded", "message") it's an invalid message.

No, it should use service discovery information features according to XEP-280.
BTW, I implemented it to be able to discover that.

Actually, invitations are not forwarded.
Section 6 (Messages Eligible for Carbons Delivery) in XEP-280.

It's not really part of this bug, but can we add a comment here explaining what this if clause is for?

In XEP-0280:
> A <message/> is eligible for carbons delivery if it is of type ”chat”.
So any MUC messages will not be forwarded, but there is a potential issue.
The private message to a MUC participant (sending and receiving) is forwarded and when we process the received message we do not know that as we have not joined that muc, so all sent and received messages (private muc) will be written in the same conversation (room@domain) as one-to-one chat because of normalization.

Have you seen this in testing? Because the spec says "A <message/> is not eligible for carbons delivery if it is determined to have been sent by a MUC room or service, even if it would be otherwise eligible (this also includes private messages from MUC participants)."

Yes.We can ignore that according to next sentences in the XEP.

Review of attachment 8778326 [details] [diff] [review]:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks!
Issues noticed in testing that should be filed as other bugs:
- When another resource for the user is online, we receive presence stanzas for that resource. These are currently unhandled. We should probably handle them by ignoring them, as we don't have any use for the information I think?
- The result stanza response to an <iq type="set"><query xmlns="jabber:iq:roster"> (adding a contact) is unhandled.

It's annoyiung that MUC private messages don't have a different namespace or something to normal private messages...
