What's the exact binary package of ejabberd and configuration that works
well? How many users has it been tested with?

I've had similar an experience similar to Aleksey with all versions of
the ejabberd I tried, and so did the Collabora people I spoke with. I
tried tweaking the configuration a bit, but the impression I got is that
ejabberd is over-engineered for our needs (only 1 server, about 1000
users).

Thanks. Send me your public ssh key, I'll give you access to the machine
hosting jabber.sugarlabs.org. If you make it work, I'll buy you a green
beer at EduJam 2012 :-)
