Bug Description
Binary package hint: empathy
This is not a bug, but a limitation (whishlist)
Most of the jabber servers request a registration from the client.
The password modification also happens on the client.
Empathy (2.28.1.1), on Ubuntu 9.10, allows me to create a new 'existing' account, but it does not allow me to create a new account on a jabber server.
If I need to create a new jabber account on a server, or if I want to modify an existing account password, I need to use a second IM client (Psy, Pidign, etc.).
