NISAN,
I remember there was a thread about this subject some time ago in this forum. AFAIK and as far as I remember the XMPP protocol does not specify the error that you will receive if you try to add a non-existent user to your roster.
I remember that I did some tests with different servers and the error that I received in each case was different. The error that you get when you try to add a user from an existent server (e.g. xxx@jabber.org) is different than the one you get when the user belongs to a non-existent server (e.g. xxx@xxx.org).
Anyway, I’'d recommend you to find out the error that you get when you add someone to your roster and send a subscription request. You could then detect this error and react accordingly.
