This service is mainly a simple [[Notifications|notification]] and AniDB pm forward function implemented into Jabber. This way you don't need to run additional software if you are already running a multinetwork Instant Messanger ([http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/ Trillian], [http://www.miranda-im.org/ Miranda], [http://www.pidgin.im Pidgin], ...) or a standalone Jabber client.

===General Information===
===General Information===
To minimize the server load the AniDB Jabber Server will only send notifications and messages to users who are subscribed <b>AND</b> online. However, the AniDB Jabber Server will only be able to tell whether you are online or not, if you permit it to add you to it's contact list. You can check your current status with the <b>status</b> command. If your status is not listed as <b>ONLINE</b>, you will not receive any notifications/messages. If your status won't change to <b>ONLINE</b> but is stuck at <b>INACTIVE</b>, check if you have entered your Jabber ID in <u>lowercase only</u> (in your profile on the AniDB site and in your Jabber client).
