[Kopete] How to assign custom port number?

When using ICQ with Kopete, Kopete seem to assign a randomly chosen port for receiving incoming messages.

But since I´m using a "firewall" I´d like to assign a fixed port number to Kopete which will be accessible from the outside world. How can I do this with Kopete 0.7? Thanx.

NB: for kopete 0.8.2

Go to properties of an ICQ account, then under Connection tab, you can specify the host and the portname to connect to.

I know, but this isn´t what I was asking for... I want to assign the port Kopete "listens at* for incoming connections, not the port Kopete connects *to*.
Just see "netstat -aptn|grep kopete" where you can see the "*" this is where Kopete listens at and this is the port I want to assign, it seems, Kopete can´t do this :-(
