I have (had) a Skype account and a MS$ accout XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX at hotmail.com; 
I logged in now for the 1st time into Skype using the MS$ account and
they combined now somehow the old Skype account with the MS$ account and I can
only login into Skype now with the XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX at hotmail.com
credentials.

Pidgin tries to use the MS$ credentials, but can't sign in. The --debug
log is attached. My Pidigin version is 2.10.9 on FreeBSD 11-CURRENT.

We are logged out, I think. It's of no use to cry. We should work for
OpenSource solutions and services.
