It's not all that uncommon for people to report problems which are fixed
in the real current version, because the version they thought was
current wasn't. Also someone may come across this message on the
mailing list archive in a year's time.

The nearest matching current bug ticket I can find is:

There appears to be a problem with upper case letters in email addresses:
http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/11532
That's the only MSN Avatar related problem I can find.

You didn't say that before. How were we expected to guess.

If you don't know what a transparent proxy is, and you are using a
consumer ISP, it is more than likely that you do have one. They are web
proxies that are inserted by the ISP without being configured in the
browser. They are often not as transparent as the name implies. Your
ISP may have auto-configured explicit ones, as well.
ISPs often impose firewalls, sometimes simply to stop you doing things
for which they can charge more. However you might have been trying to
access from your office, or school, which almost certainly would have a
firewall, and there is a very good chance they would block MSN file
transfers for policy reasons (viruses and copyright violations).

RFC1855 says there should be an address here, but, in a world of spam,
that is no longer good advice, as archive address hiding may not work.
