Does that component need to act as MAM archive? I would expect messages exchanged between a user and a transport component to be stored in the users MAM archive. Just like messages between the user and a remote server are stored in the MAM archive. > [^1]: Most of this mail makes the assumption that component's timestamp > is the same as server's component, and that the sort order is based > solely on the timestamp. BTW: If I where to implement MAM service I think I would ignore any timestamps and just store the message stanzas in the order they are put in the archive. Because that order is important. Relying on timestamp causes all sort of trouble that you likely can't solve in a federated system like XMPP (without a central authority). - Florian
