| | |  Zimbra Chat Question
Hi, my users (zimbra OS 5.x) are asking if they can add non-zimbra people to their chat list. Since Zimbra is now owned by yahoo I wonder if you can only add zimbra accounts or zimbra and yahoo account (or hotmail,etc).
Also, can my users transfer files during a chat? if so, how can I enable/disable that?
thanks,  |

They can easily use an chat application like Adium ( Adium - Download) for OSX as their chat client for the Zimbra service. If they do they'll have the features you're requesting. |

Yes, pretty certain you need an external IM application (Pidgin, Pandion, etc) for file-transfer.
The chat interoperability with Yahoo and AIM was disabled I believe, for some performance reasons... have not heard anything more recently. However, as it works now, you can interoperate with other XMPP servers/networks, such as Googletalk, if you expose two ports to the Internet and add some DNS records... |

Hi,
For me, Pidgin works.
But Pandion don't work, why?
Regards.

I would say most Windows users are using Pandion at our setup... so yes, it does work. In Connections, port 5223, checkbox for Require SSL Encryption... and for web-client-IM <--> external-client properly showing status to each other (online, etc), I usually add a "/zcs" to the login, to specify that XMPP resource. |

Yes, I sometimes use Pandion to transfer a file... it works, but it is not immediately evident, as there is some UI/display issue, but it does indeed go... |
