on 2.10.0 Android

Expected behavior

show download question in the right chat UPDATE: if message to a contact from one device receives the other

Actual behavior

download question is displayed in an extra chat only for accepting

Steps to reproduce the problem

  1. UPDATE Have two devices and one contact
  2. Set size limit for auto message download to 640k UPDATE: on receiving device
  3. Receive a message that is greater than 640k UPDATE: sent from your other device
  4. The message will not be displayed in sender’s chat UPDATE: on receiving device
    instead you have to accept it under this new chat with the email symbol only containing the question to download this big message. This chat does not contain anything after accepting.

The two blue chats are somehow connected. The first is the actual chat. The second is only for accepting too big messages.

What I do not understand is why it creates a new profile with exact that contact name.
The only difference to the original profile is that grey profile logo.
So it -can- be sorted into a second chat belonging to the correct account but it is a second chat.

The blue profiles in my screenshot have the same name. The mint ones are other profiles.

And this happens without downloading anything.
