Unable to read encrypted messages in Rocket

[chris0030]

When E2E encryption is enabled in Rocket chat, I'm unable to see these messages in Pidgin.

Is there a way to use the E2E password in the Pidgin plugin to enable this?

Oh! I had no idea there was E2E in rocket.chat now

Don't suppose you have any links to info about the technicals about how it works?

I haven't looked into it so much, https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/blob/develop/app/e2e/client/rocketchat.e2e.js Seems there is some source code based around here.

The actual RocketChat client just accepts a password for encrypting/decrypting.

Thanks for your quick reply on this, really love the plugin so far!
