I'm using Empethy Version 3.2.0.1. I will attach the chat log. Already described the steps to reproduce. Everytime someone is writing me via Facebook-Chat I receive the message but my answers don't reach my chat-partner.

OK, you first have to download the log. Then you can read it.

As described above. Seems to be a launchpad bug. You have to right-click on the log-file and choose "Save as ....". After the file is saved you can open it.

I've got the same bug after an upgrade to Precise.

OK, I've found out why the Facebook-chat worked with some of my contacts but
not with some others. If the contact has deactivated all applications than they
can't receive my messages. If they've activated applications in general they
can receive my messages. So a Facebook-problem and not one of Empathy?
