Thanks, that's a useful thing to know.  Is mod_filter documented anywhere?  I hadn't
heard of it, though maybe that's because I haven't gone far into the server code.

Somewhat related:

Going back over the documentation I see that the presence element has a type field
that is available | unavailable | subscribe | subscribed | unsubscribe | unsubscribed
| probe.  The JabberCOM documentation gives JabberPresenceType as the type for
PresType in the SendPresence method, which I assume is an enum in Delphi.  VC++
imports this as "long PresenceType".  It's been forever since I've thought about
Pascal.  Can anybody tell me what the mapping here is?  Is it 0 = available | 1 =
unavailable | 2 = subscribe | 3 = subscribed | 4 = unsubscribe | 5 = unsubscribed | 6
= probe?
