Hi Peter, I experience those issues when using pigin+otr for instant messaging on yahoo. As far as I know, it is not based on XMPP. I will try to register on an XMPP based messenger to test it there as well though it is a pity especially when long messages get lost due to the connection being lost at either end of the conversation without receiving a single confirmation message.
