XMPP Chat Client - Some IM messages to Google Talk don't get received

I've created an XMPP chat client in python. Chat generally works except it seems that Google Talk 'blocks' some messages when sending from my chat client to a user using Google Talk. For example, if I send the same one word message 'hi' multiple times to gtalk user, it only displays it once. However, when sending that same sequence of messages to a user on iChat or on Adium, all of the 'hi's get shown. Sometimes, Google Talk also doesn't display the first 1-2 incoming messages from my client.

Otherwise, chatting works. My client never has any trouble with incoming chats. Thoughts?

In case it helps anyone, I figured it out. You just need to specify an id attribute in each chat message. They can be random id's but each message should have a different one. I assume gtalk was 'blocking' repeated messages b/c it couldn't tell if the messages were distinct or just repeats without an id.
