Peter,
Quoting Peter Saint-Andre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Well, in fact I think I've found already one case when this is a
problem, not only for collections listing, but also for their removal
and for preferences storing, see my message:
http://mail.jabber.org/pipermail/standards/2007-November/017205.html
... skipped ...
Of course I do not claim to be representative user here: I use ICQ and,
especially, MSN gateways not that much recently, but error messages from
gateways (wich comprise all of the "direct" messages from these domain
JIDs) are coming regardless whether I use these gateways or not.
Why are you logging error messages? :)
Yes, exactly!!! ;-)
Yes but I think this issue applies more broadly (e.g., to MUC and
privacy lists also). So we need to think up a more general solution.
Do you think the approach with adding in all these cases attribute
like "exact" or "exactMatch" (so that JID is treated literally instead
of like mask) is too hacky?
There's one other idea I have, but it may break backward compatibility
and I'm not sure if it doesn't break something else: what if JIDs like
'domain.com' are treated like 'wildcards' (like it is now), but
'@domain.com' are considered to be exact matches of domain JID (so,
basically, JID with empty user name)?
The same for resources: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' is treated like wildcard,
but '[EMAIL PROTECTED]/' is exact match of bare JID?
Good luck! Alexander
