[JDEV] Logging in as the server JID

Hello, all. I'm starting work on a Perl script that will take jabber 
messages sent from the admin and forward it to all users os the server. 
This is different from the MotD festure in that they are only messaged 
once, not everytime they log in.

I am trying to figure out how I can send these forwarded messages as the 
server JID (theoretic.com instead of adamtheo at theoretic.com). Is there 
anyway I can log into it to send out these messages?

Also, I'd love to do this myself, but I'll have to just request a 
feature in future versions of the server that sends a single message to 
all users, along the lines of the MotD and Online features. Perhaps 
"sever.domain/announce/all".
