Description
### Description
I do not have access to a message I sent, even though I backed up my encryption keys.
I believe the problem is the messages are not restored after the backup is reset, so that has to be done manually. But maybe I'm wrong...
I tested a few times and to me it seemed to be that...
### Steps to reproduce
- login for the very first time
- set up encryption backup with passphrase
- send a message
- reset encryption backup
- logout
- login again
- the message is not accessible
Logs being sent: no
### Version information

Sorry for the long video, it was not planned for this...
