See, you can communicate with any jabber server and jabber client out there, unless some other rule, like a privacy rule, prohibits that. That is not restricted to IQ stanzas only, but all type of stanzas (presence, message, iq).

So, if you send a message to your friend on jabber.org, it travels from your client to your server, to her server, to her client, assuming that all connections are up and alive.

Yes.

It works just like smtp. The jabber id contains the name of the Jabber Domain.

jabber_nickname@domain so your home jabber server can find the jabber ip of the domain and transfert your messages and requests
