2.10.11 && connection refused to MSN servers

[Matthias Apitz]

I have compiled 2.10.11 from source and it is imposible to connect to
the MSN server, either directly or via HTTP (if I mark this option):

$ pidgin -d > p
^C

$ pidgin -d >> p
^C

$ fgrep refused p
(15:39:17) proxy: Error connecting to messenger.hotmail.com:1863 (Connection refused).
(15:39:17) proxy: Connection attempt failed: Connection refused
(15:39:17) msn: Connection error: Connection refused
(15:39:17) msn: Connection error from Notification server (messenger.hotmail.com): Connection refused Connection refused)
(15:39:43) proxy: Error connecting to gateway.messenger.hotmail.com:80 (Connection refused).
(15:39:43) proxy: Connection attempt failed: Connection refused
(15:39:43) msn: HTTP: Connection error: Connection refused
(15:39:43) msn: Connection error from Notification server (gateway.messenger.hotmail.com): Connection refused Connection refused)

It seems that they now have shutdown this service in favor of Skype.
