I think most "average" users tend to reuse the same password a lot anyway, so the password from their jabber account is probably the same as for those networks in a lot of cases. So you have to trust your server admin anyway. There is one solution ofcourse if you don't want to give any forgein IM network passwords to the admin, just convince all your contacts to switch to Jabber ;) -- Tijl Houtbeckers Software Engineer @ Splendo The Netherlands _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev
