Can you send your jabberd config file, so we know how this is configured?

dialback.  The jabber.com server is using the 1.0 server, jabber.org is using 1.2, if jabber.org cannot verify that your jabber server name matches the IP address for that name in DNS, it will not accept any of your messages.

the <agents/> section in JSM is for the client ONLY.. the server never even looks at this data... it's a list of transports/agents the client has access to... the client uses this list to show the user the transports/agents she can use.

this is usually users.jabber.org... the only central user database... unless you want to run your own JUD.. in that case you will need the JUD code from Ryan Eatmon, and a working mySQL database.
