Hey,

A few questions :

1. Does this work from behind NAT ? as in from Alice behind a
corporate firewall to Bob behind another corporate firewall ? (both
are behind a NAT).


Also, I find that in normal use anyone using Psi/Pidgin is able to
send me files without any problems, right now without any
configuration of lib jingle.

Regards,
Devdatta
