The gaim-encryption protocol does not use any common encryption like
gpg, so if you want to use it both sides have to use gaim-encryption.

At the moment I use centericqs gpg-feature, but it is only implemented
for the jabber protocol, so you have to switch to jabber.

I have only tried these so I don't know about the rest of the IM-clients.
