The more difficult bit will be blocking access to other XMPP services. 
That might be easier done in the firewall.

Generally forcing a multi-service client to only access one service is 
going against the fundamental concept of the software, so it will not 
have been designed to help that, although it will always be possible to 
add extra validation to the source code to achieve it.

RFC1855 says there should be an address here, but, in a world of spam,
that is no longer good advice, as archive address hiding may not work.
