Hi All, I have implemented Jabber (Wildfire/Spark to be exact) in our corporate (well, three user :-) environment as an alternative to the usual IM software as the boss was very unhappy that certain employees were spending too much time chatting with friends. However, there were valid uses for MSN: we have support contacts in other states which we chat to through MSN. Ideally, it would be nice to use the MSN transport so we may continue to contact them via IM.
Just enabling the transport is not an option given smart users will just re-add their non-work related MSN contacts. Is there any way to restrict access to only certain contacts/JIDs accessed via the transport? Many Thanks, Lucien.

If spark has no support for it, they wont be able to disable it easily.
