[JDEV] Weird: email getting deleted from Jabber vCard

[Emswiler, Mike]

I haven't seen anything like this in the vcard functionality, however, I
have seen some weird behavior in the server's storage of groups in the
roster - Specifically truncation of group names.  I have also heard similar
reports (truncated groups in rosters) from users of other clients, so its
unlikely we're making the same mistake in both a c++ client and a perl
client.

Thanks,
MikeE

That's super weird, and I would love to hear if anyone else has seen
anything like this.
