Hi! I have seen something very similar on my server. We had tons of accounts with usernames of what appeared to be md5sums. They had no contacts EXCEPT they were using our MSN transports. At the same time I also had registrations with usernames that were exactly 10 digits (i.e. 0123456...@jabber.fsinf.at), with the same behaviour.
I figured this was a spam-problem and deleted all such accounts plus blocked their registration. Nobody ever complained. To make a long story short: I think we have a significant spamming problem on jabber. greetings, Mati PS: Just for the record, jabber.fsinf.at is *still* on the public list, despite the fact that it doesn't allow any registrations. jabber.at is still not added.
