Hi Guys

Just wondering if this possible to config instantbird to auto accept buddy requests ?

This is very useful if you use meebo & the meebo me widget on websites for customer/vistor interaction

If its not currently possible please use this ticket as a request for this feature as its a needed feature

Cheers

Justin

No: flo's comment [1]: "there's no way to do that "out of the box". It could be possible to do that as an add-on, and if it's not as easy as it should, we would be happy to accept the changes needed to make this easy (or even make them ourself)"

I changed around some fields to make this an enhancement request. I'm not sure we'd ever want it in core, but as flo said we'd definitely make the changes to allow an add-on to do it.

On the behalf of Florian:
Closing bugs related to the Instantbird UI as WONTFIX, as the development of the standalone chat client Instantbird has stopped. Instantbird users are encouraged to migrate to Thunderbird. The user interface of instant messaging in Thunderbird will feel familiar, as the Thunderbird IM support started as a fork of Instantbird.
