For detection, have the receiver echo back and check that sent == received.

  But what if both are drunk?!

    If the drunk transformation is 's' -> 'sh' Sender sends 's' Receiver receives 'sh' Receiver sends back 'sh' Sender receives 'shh', compares it to the 's' it thought it sent, and correctly deduces something went wrong in the communication. It is overzealous in that it would fail if the sender wasn't drunk but the receiver was.

  But if the reciever echoes "sho" (drunken "so") that would just be "sho" again wouldn't it?

    Server sends 'so' Receiver receives 'sho' Receiver sends back 'sho' Sender receives 'sho', compares it to the 'so' it thought it sent, and correctly deduces something went wrong in the communication.
