"Recipient is not registered" when messaging self #8

Closed saulmc closed 2 years ago

saulmc commented 2 years ago

After connecting a new wallet and signing twice, I expect that I can copy my address and message myself. Instead, I receive an error indicating that my address is not registered with the network.

Note I'm connecting with Rabby.io, given the Metamask issue I ran into with xmtp-labs/eng#7 .

I was able to reproduce this by creating a new wallet that hasn't yet registered against the testnet. The issue is related to xmtp-labs/core#152 where testnet storage is currently bounded and silently not accepting new messages (the registration message is just the first in your workflow). You can track the work in the linked issue.
