As far as i know current versions of Messenger do indeed use a direct connection for conversations in most situations. But when no direct connection van be made due to network issues or firewalls it falls back to going trough Microsoft's servers. So you can't rely on Messenger to make a direct connection every time.

Also, Patchou said multiple times in the past he doesn't want Messenger Plus! to mess on a protocol level. Some type of encryption is still possible, but I don't see a secure tunnel happening.

Finish the problem
