6 Currently many XMPP clients save the messages locally and it's not convenient or even possible to retrieve the historical messages, especially when one switches the clients a lot. 6 Currently many XMPP clients save the messages locally and it's not convenient or even possible to retrieve the historical messages, especially when one switches the clients a lot.

8 So it will be much easier if the XMPP server supports server-side message archiving. In this case, the clients can retrieve archived messages anytime and anywhere. XMPP Extension Proposal XEP-0136 is defined for this purpose. This module is an implementation of [http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0136.html XEP-0136: Message Archiving].

12 The server will have the ability to archive messages passing through. 10 This module keeps an archive of incoming and outgoing messages for each user on the server, and allows the user to query and manage this archive using the XMPP extension described in [http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0136.html XEP-0136: Message Archiving].

12 *Note:* If you are an administrator looking for a module just for centrally logging messages passing to/from users on your server, this probably isn't the module you are looking for (mod_archive is for user-managed archives). We'd really like to hear about your requirements to make a module more tailored to this kind of use-case though (especially how/where you would like the messages stored)... drop us an email at developers@prosody.im to let us know.
