I wrote a Jabber <-> SMTP bridge, writeup is at http://ladro.com/jabber/jsmtp.html In a nutshell: you can send email to an account of yours that triggers a Jabber session to a jabber server, sending as a return your email address like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to which the person can reply to. It just copies the body of the email to the body of the jabber message and vice versa. The instructions are for Qmail as I know how to easily call external programs from a .qmail-extension file. It should work for other MTAs. Chris _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev
