sendxmpp: man page advertises non-existing feature

The man page claims:

#v+
	# account with specific connection host
	alice at myjabberserver.com;foo.com secret
#v-

However, using that syntax makes sendxmpp barf:

#v+
	syntax error in line 2 of /home/kas/.sendxmpprc
#v-

Line 146 of the sendxmpp perl script reads

#v+
	if (/([-\.\w]+)@([-\.\w:]+)\s+(\S+)\s*$/) {
#v-

showing that no attempt is made at extracting a specific connection 
host.  This bug makes it impossible to use the config file if the 
jabber server is different from the left-hand side of the JID, thus 
affecting all "Google Apps for Your Domain" users, who all have 
talk.google.com er their connection host.

The bug is true even for sendxmpp v1.13.
