When I try to send a message to a certain contact of mine, I immediately get a "delivery failed" response from Conversations. However, there is no indicator as to what happened. RFC6120 describes several distinct error types for the <error> element of the stanza in Section 8.3, which could be shown (in addition to the <body> element of the stanza) to the user in a "details" long-press menu option.
fwiw the error is being logged to the debug console.
Not really sure if it's worth implementing extra UI for this.
A simple map of the one dozen or so error codes in RFC6120 to more descriptive strings, shown in a dialogue would be very helpful already. Without having to fiddle with the debug console one could destinguish at least the category of error: Is it a client issue, is my own server at fault, does the remote server have a problem, ...
There is a 'show error' in more recent version of Conversations.
