Use of libpurple functions

[Eoin Coffey]

I think Eric is broken...

Anyways this is the specific function you want:
http://developer.pidgin.im/doxygen/dev/html/account_8h.html#a94c49287371e2c59fd781229f7a050b


you pass it a PurpleAccount* not a char*.

P.S. I'm broken 'cause I always forget to hit "Reply to all" in gmail so it
doesn't get sent to devel :-P
