Do we both have to set the setting, or just the sender? I created otr.mms in my 64-bit Windows7 AppData\Roaming\.purple directory, alongside
otr.private_key, otr.fingerprints, otr.instance_tags.

I set the content to

prpl-yahoo<tab>750<newline>

(yes, using the tab and newline special characters).

and large messages were still dropped. Then I jumped all the way down to 450, and that didn't change the behavior either.

So that's making me wonder if the setting is being picked up at all. I swear this seems like the same thing that happened when I tried to debug on the old version too.

For us, "large" was somewhere in the 880-character range, although not consistent when the message text changed. Again, same messages were fine over Gtalk.

Can you further lower the yahoo mss until it starts working?

Put a file called otr.mms in your pidgin directory, alongside the other
OTR files.

Put one line in it:

prpl-yahoo<tab>750<newline>

Where <tab> is a tab character, and <newline> is a newline (or a
carriage-return/newline pair if you're on Windows).

The value that seems to work for us is 799.  Let us know if 750 works
for you.  Is your yahoo username unusually long, by any chance?

Thanks,
