Have you used articles from others experience? just noticed, that you're likely want additionally to rewrite the following gajim credentials: lovetox <forenjunkie AT chelo DOT at> --> Philipp Hörist <forenjunkie AT chello DOT at> tmolitor <thilo AT eightysoft DOT de> --> Thilo Molitor <thilo AT eightysoft DOT de> Their respective owners should correct me, if I'm wrong with the identification.
