I don't see the context for this conversation, so I may be missing something.
Setting your priority to -1 affects ONLY the step in the server where it's picking what resource to send a message addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (no resource). -1 resources are not eligible for this default routing. Messages and iq's addressed to the [EMAIL PROTECTED]/resource will still go to that session, as will presences addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and presences addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED]/resource (where the resource is that of the -1 session). I know, the -im draft says that presences MUST NOT be sent, but that was apparently a mis-copy/paste that will get fixed in the last draft. -- Joe Hildebrand > -----Original Message----- > From: Mikael Hallendal [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, December 15, 2003 5:21 AM > To: Jabber Devel List > Subject: Re: [JDEV] Negative priority > > mån 2003-12-01 klockan 19.05 skrev Peter Saint-Andre: > > On Mon, Dec 01, 2003 at 06:23:16PM +0100, Magnus Henoch wrote: > > > XMPP IM states in section 11.3 that a resource with a negative > > > priority will not receive message or presence stanzas.
