2 FaversViewed: 4 TimesQuoted: A component is a trusted piece of an XMPP server that can send and receive arbitrary stanzas. Components speak a different protocol to communicate with the server. Because the name of a component is a domain (example: arbiter.chesspark.com), a component can pretend to be many users. Any stanza addressed to user@component.server.com will be delivered to component.server.com no matter what the value is of ‘user’.
