[Xastir] Sending Messages

[Chip G.]

Always good to have more info. I just looked at the console log. I found a bunch of these:

Bring up the window (either way, through contextual menu or through other menu) and when I type in a message and hit enter or click on the send now button it just sits there. The message doesn't appear in the list above and doesn't ever get sent as far as I can tell.
