 Replying to [comment:19 deryni]:
 > ronjie: Can you use something like wireshark to find out what trillian
 is doing differently? My guess is that they are either trying more
 servers, or using a different version of the protocol and therefore using
 different servers. But I know nothing about the Yahoo protocol.

 broken then (other than changing pidgin to try fallback entries) I'm not
 sure what we can do about this.

 Sorry it took me so long to reply to this... I just got it.

 Scratch trillian... it's not connecting either... I can however connect
 with yahoo im
