#10656: server errors for Yahoo

     Type:  defect                                 |    Status:  new       
Component:  Yahoo!/Yahoo! JAPAN                    |   Version:  2.6.3     
 Keywords:  buddy icon, server, mail notification  |  
---------------------------------------------------+------------------------
 Similar tickets are coming up, but none which cover what I believe to be
 another server problem.

 '''1) Buddy icon changes:'''

      '''1-1)''' either through the lack of updates in my online buddies or

      '''1-2)''' the failure to update my own icon as reported "buddyicon:
 Could not convert icon to usable format." or a similar "icon less than
 <400" message

 '''2) Failure of New Mail Notifications:'''

 Bizarrely, the notification is given by changing '''scsa.msg.yahoo.com'''
 to '''cn.scs.msg.yahoo.com''' as some chose to do with the June issue.
 Doing so shows I have''' ''x'' new emails.'''  ''However'' I am then
 unable to IM anyone on my Buddy List.

 '''3) Failure of status changes at log-in:'''

 Another ticket is open for this, but I believe it to be a similar or
 related issue.  Before I am able to control my status, I seem to be unable
 to IM anyone on my Buddy List.  Often, changing my status to "Busy" seems
 to resolve the issue, but it could be a coincidence of my timing and some
 slow communication with the server.
