Please re-enable inband registration
This is based on an email discussion with @andrew.nenakhov, I think it would be better to add it to the issue tracker. I understand that you removed the capability of being able to create an XMPP account from Xabber because some servers do not support it and it causes confusion to some users.Yet this will require that some users will need another XMPP client just to create an account for the first time, eapecially that some servers (such as rows.io) don't support web registration. @andrew.nenakhov suggested adding a hidden option to enable inband registration.
We've been overrun by stupid russian junkies who thought that entering whatever rubbish they could think of would create an account for them. 5-10 requests to support on email every day. It got significantly better after we've removed this option.
@aelmahmoudy I'll think about a way to add in-band back with such idiot-proof interface so it'd be less hard for us to support this functionality.
+1 enable.
From my point of view it sounds like a server-side issue not the fault of the client. Why does the server excepts stupid russian junkies. ;) But seriously I think the server should handle this the one or the other way .. maybe with the help of the client but disabling it doesn't sound like adequate solution to me.
@Avispa it's not even a server side issue, it's junkie-head issue. You see, they enter whatever they like random names with random domains - @gmail.com , @mail.ru, @outlook.com, @23423423.jp
As you can easily understand, most such domains even don't have XMPP servers at all behind them, but junkies expect to get registered with "xabber" using provided username, and when Xabber didn't magically connect, they started bothering our support and posting 'not connecting', 'does not work' type reviews on Google Play. Ugh.
@jumpwe-movim-eu we'll be happy to accept PR from you solving this issue
