here is an extract of jabber.el documentation:

   jabber.el has limited support for file transfer.  The most important
   limit is that files sent and received are kept in buffers, so Emacs
   must be able to allocate enough memory for the entire file, and the
   file size must be smaller than the maximum buffer size.(1)

   jabber.el is able to exchange files with most Jabber clients (and
   also some MSN transports), but notably not with the official Google
   Talk client.  The Google Talk client uses a different file transfer
   protocol which, at the time of this release, has not been published.
