You know I had no idea about Jabber until recently. I dont like online chat. But with your instruction, I visited jabber.org and then followed link to xmpp.net and found info about jabber.se. I understood that I need a server with msn transport, and jabber.se has this gateway. So I registered there and added msn to transport. Now I can chat with jabber.el. What I mean is jabber manual should mention that with server support it can be used to chat with msn/yim/icq etc. You know for a jabber newbie like me, if there is no mentioning of this capability, we may turn around and go to other apps or sit at the corner of some street and cry our hearts out. Anyway thanks, I can chat within Emacs now.
