Error: HTTP: Response truncated

[roughnecks]

Hello,
I'm getting this error very frequently and steam reconnects each time.

I'm connected to a public bitlbee server through Matrix (heisenbridge).

I have now compiled the plugin on my own box and apart from the first couple days, when everything seemed fine,
I'm now getting other HTTP errors and connection timeouts.

steam - Error: HTTP: 500 Internal Server Error
steam - Error: HTTP: Request timed out
steam - Login error: Connection timeout
steam - Logging in: Signing off..
steam - Logging in: Reconnecting in 405 seconds..

This should be fixed by #147

Do note, that these past few days there's also been Error: HTTP: 503 Service Unavailable which happens on the mobile app as well, so that one is a server side issue and not a bitlbee-steam one.

Thank you, will update ASAP.

Wait, this was merged on 7 July and I already had pulled the commit.. (i installed bitlbee locally in the meantime).

Now I just see all of 503

steam - Error: HTTP: 503 Service Unavailable
steam - Signing off..

steam - Reconnecting in 5 seconds..

But if it's a server side issue, guess I can close this issue..

It is a server side issue, yes, however since it is extremely annoying (it re-sends unread messages), I've been increasing the retries and it seems to help "mask" the issue.

You can try applying the following to see how it goes.

Done that, thanks @tatokis
Will let you know how it goes.
