Thanks for the clarification. I didn't know that I could save my own custom nicknames on jabber server. Is this a feature, every jabber server MUST implement? And, if not, should the client get feedback, if saving was successfull? I think it is important now, to be sure, where the bug occurs: on kopete or the server. Can someone with knowledge of XMPP give an answer? The server I talk about, is facebook. I know, that facebook only implements parts of XMPP. And if facebook does not apply to the standard, there are only two options for kopete: a) make an option for jabber like Pali suggests b) clone XMPP protocol and adapt it for facebook I would prefer solution a) :-) But if facebook only does not support an optional feature and handles things like the specification, then kopete should make its jabber protocol implementation more robust. I think it is important to have good support for facebook, since I believe, it is the (with great advance) most popular "xmpp" server, so many people suffer from these problems. - Cyberbeat ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
