Bug Description
Empathy's handling of Adium themes is almost completely broken. Attached is an example theme which is the most minimal possible "theme" according the Adium spec. It does not apply any kind of style. Empathy cannot even handle this properly.
According to http://
<stylename>
Contents [directory]
Info.plist Resources [directory]
Resources [directory]
Main.css
Status.html
Incoming [directory]
Content.html
The attached theme file supplies all of these files.
What should happen: All message types should fall back to using the Incoming/
What actually happens: Status messages, continuation messages, and outgoing messages are not displayed at all.

As it turns out, Empathy cannot fall back in the case of missing files. So here is a version of the Null theme which supplies all the option html files. It also does not work. Continued messages still do not appear. (eg if the same person speaks twice or more in a row, only their first message is seen. Affects both sending and receiving.)
