thanks for the bug report. but accoring to empathy upstream if
encryption is supported by the server empathy does it encrypted

<om26er> when we add a jabber account why isnt it secure by default (encrypted)?
<sjoerd> it is
<om26er> sjoerd, 'encryption required (TLS/SSL)' is for?
<sjoerd> then it's mandatory
<sjoerd> but we always turn on encryption when the jabber server supports it
<sjoerd> As we don't have good certificate checking and some servers (e.g. facebook iric) don't do it, it's not a great default

** Changed in: empathy (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
