In ejabberd you can write a module (not a component) intercepting and
(I think modify) any type of packets passing through the server
through the mechanism of ejabberd event hooks. On the ejabberd mailing
list I think you'll find all the help you need

http://www.process-one.net/en/wiki/ejabberd_events_and_hooks/
And if you are adventurous enough you can write them from external
applications http://blog.bluendo.com/ff/ejabberd-hooks-with-twisted
