I think that's where you're a bit confused about the gateways. To me a headless client is very reasonable - IRC bots and smart IM buddies are good examples of headless clients, Google's SMS search is a headless client too. Only the socket gateway behaves like a server (accepts connections from a telnet client). The XMPP gateway is a headless client - it acts as a buddy that can respond to IMs from other users. -- Sean A Corfield -- http://www.corfield.org/ Team Fusebox -- http://www.fusebox.org/ Breeze Me! -- http://www.corfield.org/breezeme Got Gmail? -- I have 49, yes 49, invites to give away!
