#12925: MSN using different certs on different hosts breaks TLS connection to buddy
list

     Type:  enhancement       |    Status:  new    
Component:  MSN               |   Version:  2.7.5  
 Keywords:  msn certificates  |  
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 MSN has implemented new certificates on the hosts for
 omega.contacts.msn.com. They are not using the same cert on each host, so
 when you have connected to one, then DNS round robin connects you to
 another and the certs don't match, Pidgin disconnects with a "Unable to
 validate certificates" error.
 I believe the only option is to have Pidgin accept a changed cert as long
 as it validates through the hierarchy. See this post for more.
