 gateway, it works within any query window, provided that your
 conversation partner's IRC client supports OTR.

  * Authentication - you are assured the correspondent is who you think
    it is.

    that are checkable by a third party. Anyone can forge messages after
    a conversation to make them look like they came from you. However,
    _during_ a conversation, correspondents are assured the messages
    they see are authentic and unmodified.
  * Forward secrecy - if you lose control of your private keys,
