Changing the Telegram name disconnects the IRC users #94

I have been using this bot for quite a long time, and it works quite well, except this point : if you change the name of the Telegram chan, IRC users won't get the telegram messages, whereas Telegram users will get IRC messages. Then the policy is "don't change the name of the Telegram chat", but I do not know if that can be corrected.

Best Regards,

Hi,

This is definitely fixable. The problem right now is that the bot will check for an exact match between the group chat name and what has been configured in config.js. We could also support setting chatIds in the config.channels = [...] array, which would solve the problem of chats changing names.
