yahoo's authentication method

[Al Cohen]

I am trying to make some senses out of the
libpurple/protocols/yahoo/yahoo.c.
 
1) What are the differences between yahoo_process_auth_new() and
yahoo_process_auth_old()? Is the "new" for 9.x and "old" for 8.x and
older?
 
2) Does TRY_WEBMESSENGER_LOGIN really works? Can someone tell me the
pros/cons on using this vs the other two yahoo_process_auth_old/new?
 
Lastly, I notice in Yahoo 9.x, it talks to scs1.msg.yahoo.com instead of
YAHOO_PAGER_HOST "scs.msg.yahoo.com". When I change to scs1 in my pidgin,
I cannot login. What's going on?
 
Thanks!
