Subscription Authentication

No, you won't violating any laws, but the "thing" you create would make your version of "ejabberd" not comply to XMPP (and Jabber). Please change name och that thing, would you do this, to something else than ejabberd.

In short, that is, it won't be a jabber server any more. And that is what ejabberd are.

There IS a reason why XMMP works in this waym so you shouldn't solve it in that way. Add an option to the clients to autoaccept from certain Jabber servers instead. That would still make the client a Jabber client. And the clients can turn that on/off as they like.
Which is "A good thing".

thanks for the info bro. So if i were to modify the server that way, would i be violationg any law? so i guess the best option for me was to just set my clients to automatically authorize subscription request? thanks alot and god bles.. ^^

Authentication of subscriptions is required by the XMPP RFCs and thus it is not possible to disable this spim preventing feature. On the other hand, in some Jabber clients you have an option to automatically authorize subscription requests, and you can look at Shared Roster Groups to see if that can be a solution for you.
