I'm trying out Jabber (usually use AIM), looking through the Jabber user guide, and have a couple questions for how to do things in Adium...

-I can't make the echo service on jabber.org work (although I can send messages to myself) - should a new message from my newly-registered (and online) jabber account to "jabber.org/echo" do that?
-Is it possible to edit user information / profile / JUD information? How about looking up?
-How do I do 'handshakes' for presence? Since I don't know any other Jabber users, this is moot so far, but I noticed that nothing like that happened when I added myself to my Roster/CL.
-Can I use transports?

Thanks in advance!

I would like to know the answer to the last question. It would be in my best interest, too, if these were answered. Maybe I'm blind, but I haven't managed to find any answers regarding using transports on the Adium website, or even with a google search -- but I have seen it mentioned.

You can't set up transports in Adium. Your can in Psi however.

Why would one want to use transports in Adium?

Also, there are other services that Jabber offers that would be nice.

Ewwwww IRC on Adium?

I tried that, and hated it. Looks really bad. Hmm… maybe it’s time for an irssi message view
