I noticed some time ago that the Twitter API doesn't work and thought that it's only specific to the Twitter API or the related HttpBasicAuthentication in Lift. I will try to check what's going on tonight. BTW this bug is actually blocking ESME-54, because the Twitter API relies on this to figure out which messages it should show to the current user and which it should filter out.
