Ok Bilal, I'll try to install the empathy version you mentioned, but I think a tried previously installing it from source, and finding some compiling complications. If there is any trusted how-to to install empathy from source on Ubuntu 11.10, I'll be grateful if you post it for me.
Regarding the logs Muhammad asked, is there any way to find out what's happening in the official version bundled in Ubuntu?

The message is actually received correctly, since when I close the window and open it again (by starting a new chat with the sender), the text of the message appears in the recent log (I mean, in the chat window I've just opened). This problem seems to happend with every account I have configured. Protocols used are: msn, gtalk, facebook chat, yahoo, icq. I mostly chat using the first two accounts.
