Yes, that's how it works, with a per user key. The way it works is that you and your contact will be talking using the same key. The problem is, your contact will somehow need to find out what key you are using in order to talk to you, which makes it kind of pointless. I may decide to make the key used for AutoEncrypt and AutoDecrypt related to the contacts' user ID's, so that you won't need to find out (that actually sounds like quite a good idea 
).
If you want this because of added security, then I can say that would be pointless too...
All the 'hacker' needs to do is getting the other user's id and voila he can read those messages too.
eg: if you're in a multi convo window and you send an ecrypted key, it is dead easy to simply iterate thru all the contacts and decrypt the message using each individual contact userID.
So for starters, never ever send an encrypted text in a multi contact convo. Unless you take a look at how PGP works; private key and public key...

PS. Question: If I use multiple messengers (polygamy), do the global variables overlap?
no, they are different threads of the same script.

Also, anyone know how to make a list of contacts with checkboxes?
see various examples on the forum and released scripts.
