This is the main History Viewer

 

    In this section you can view history for each of your conversations with your contacts. There are three different ways to view the conversations either both by clicking this button, or half of the conversation by clicking this button or the other half of the conversation by clicking this button

    You also have the availability of printing or clearing or saving it for future reference

 

View Received Files

 

 View Received Files: Just double click on the file you wish to open and it will automatically open to the format you have loaded on your computer and then you will be able to view the files you previously accepted from other myjabber users.

Profiles

Profiles: The myJabber Account Setup Wizard is a multifold, multipurpose tool that not only helps new users get online fast and easy, but helps you set up Multiple Profiles. These can be different user names on the same  server or allows you to use different servers and switch between them with the click of the mouse. As seen to the left, I have 3 different profiles set up, the first is  my default account on the myJabber server, the second a testing account I use when I'm hiding from my fans and the third is on a server that lives in the gateway to my private LAN here in the Southwestern Office.
More About Presence

my Information

The V-Card, while hardly being exclusive to myJabber or to Jabber in general, is a handy way to place information about yourself on the Web. When used on an internal communications platform (hopefully designed by sltsCommunications) this is a great way to share personal and company information about your users. All of your personal and Business contact information can be configured here and submitted to the User Directory on the Jabber Server.

Features:
  Name: As shown, this is the basic Name and E-mail information for this Profile.
 
  Home: This is the home address and Phone information.
 
  Business: Your Business information Phone, extension etc
 
  Personal: A couple of personal tidbits.
 
E-Mail Address: This is for when other myjabber users may want to send you an e-mail and they can locate it in here ( But only if you fill in this section) You do not have to complete this if you do not want you e-mail address to be available to other users.

 

 

 

Change Password

 

Change Password: Quick and simple, down and dirty,  enter your old password followed by the new one you would like to  use. Type the new one again to verify it and click ok. This submits the request to the Jabber server and update the configuration in your client. Couldn't be simpler! If you wish at any time to change your password back to the original password you can do this as well. If at any time you lose/forget your password e-mail us at support@myjabber.net and we should be able to retrieve it for you.

Message of the day

Message of the Day: (aka, Steve and Terry's soapbox). This appears every time we post a new story on the website www.myjabber.net  We use this to inform and entertain our loyal users. (all three of them)  You will see this when you first install myJabber, on a new story post or by clicking the link to it in the Tools Menu. This only shows up once on a new story post, I edit a file that myJabber keeps track of and knows if you have seen the entry. In the old day, this came up every time you opened myJabber. After a significant number of death threats, Steve fixed this to only show up once. The image to the left shows a recent posting by yours truly.
