Description
Using mcabber as Jabber client, I cannot join a “closed room” even if the owner adds my converted JID to the access list. That or we cannot figure out the correct converted one.
Joining a public room on the same server using the @matrix.org bridge works, though, even if #313 applies.

Research direction
No source file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce the failure with mcabber when joining a closed Matrix room through the XMPP bridge, compare it with a public room and the @matrix.org bridge, and review issue #313. Done means an owner-added converted JID can join the closed room.
