External Instant Messengers (Interoperable IM)

MobJab IM (Instant Messaging) gateway allows users to log in to and communicate through external instant messaging (Interoperable IM) services via their MobJab accounts. You can use your MobJab Login details and connect to a number of other IM Gateways like AOL Instant Messenger - AIM, GoogleTalk-Gtalk Messenger and Jabber-XMPP Messenger, MSN Messenger, Yahoo Instant Messenger - YIM and ICQ Messenger from your Mobile Handset.

When you first login to your MobJab account after you have added AIM/MSN/Yahoo/ICQ external networks in your account you would get a presence message from the server asking your authorisation that if you want to add your buddy on the external network to your buddy list and subscribe to his presence. You need to add and authorise and subscribe to presence of the external transports buddies. Else you wont see the external buddies presence.

Do remember that Fetching External IM buddy list is a phone memory/processor intensive process. For example SonyEricsson mobile handsets do not login to MobJab IMPS Gateway if there are more than 50 contacts.

MobJab IMPS Gateway doesnt limit the number of contact entries on the connecting IMPS client.
