Hehe

Your leaching it of someone else. (Don't if that is the right spelling either)
Someone is getting a rawdeal.

Ste
Got that last night.
Looks like it is working ok then.
Cheers mate.

Amirc seems better supported for Arexx but Wookiechat allows the multiple servers option.
So I will stick with Wookiechat.

Off the top of your head can you think of any pros and cons to installing Bitlbee?

Have now chatted to somebody in MSN with Wookiechat.
All working well.
Haven't tested Jabberwocky yet, but not in any rush to do so as I cannot find a Yahoo server.
Did have one but it has been off line for a while now.
Never got round to sorting IRC on it anyway.
Wookiechat is doing everything I need, so I will stick with that.

There arn't really any pros to installing BitlBee unless you already run your own server.

It is really just easier to connect to im.bitlbee.org.

Can chat in MSN with Jabberwocky, if connected to a server that has an MSN transport.
It supposed possible if the server hasn't got a MSN Transport.
Aparently if you visit another sever that does have a MSN transport, you can use that.
Can't get that to work though.
Be simpler I think to log onto a server that has all the neccessary transports.
Not easy finding one though.
Seems this type of thing is much easier using Bitlbee and IRC.
Anyone know what advantages there are of Jabber over Bitlbee?
