It sounds like the channel has SECURE set; this overrides nickname
SECURE settings (for that channel) and requires an IDENTIFY whether or
not the nickname has SECURE set.

This has been requested by a number of people and is being considered.
(On the other hand, as long as you send /ns identify first this won't be a
problem...)
