Re: Jabber jabbering too much

["Martyn Wendon" <martynwendon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks James, all sorted now!  I didn't realise xAP Jabber relayed
message.display messages.  All my message.display stuff on my network is
targetted, if it wasn't I'd have worked it out sooner as my IM clients
would
have been going nuts popping up all sorts of stuff!

Cool, thanks for all your hard work on all your xAP apps, each new release
or upgrade brings more and more added functionality and features.  Just
wish
I had the time to do more myself!
