+S Channel Mode Problems

I can not for the life of me figure out why the +S channel mode is not stripping any colors.
/mode #channel +S
Colored text generated by the Ctrl+K key combination are still displayed. However, the +c mode works properly. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I've tried everything I can think of at the moment short of going through the code.

You keep on seeing your own colors, but those of others are being filtered. Did you try if it worked with your own colors or those of others?

Ah! That's it. I was setting up and testing the server myself so I didn't realize that was the case.
Thank you for your help!

Yeah, the thing is PRIVMSG's and NOTICE's are displayed by your client before being sent on to the server because they aren't relayed back, however since it is the server that does the filtering on them, they aren't changed until the get to the server. Consequently, you see exactly what you typed, but others see the modified version of the message. It's also the reason why when you're in a +m channel and don't have any status, you see your message on screen AND get the error saying you can't send to the channel.
