#12951: Unable to connect to MSN/YIM
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------

--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Since upgrading to 2.7.5, I haven't been able to successfully connect to
MSN or Yahoo's messenger service. Both are presenting different issues,
and I've tried alternate ports/servers, none of which are working.
'''For MSN:'''
The current settings are:
Server: messenger.hotmail.com
Port: 80
Use HTTP Method CHECKED (unchecked presents same issue)
HTTP Method Server: gateway.messenger.hotmail.com
Show custom smileys CHECKED
Whenever I try to connect, it immediately errors with a message stating,
"MSN Error: Server Unavailable." I've checked through Meebo just to test
the connection, and it does connect to the server.
'''For YIM:'''
The current settings are:
Pager port: 443 (also checked using other ports as well)
File transfer server: 66.163.181.106
File transfer port: 80
Chat room locale: us
Encoding: UTF-8
Use account proxy for HTTP and HTTPS connections CHECKED
Whenever I try to connect to it, I continuously receive a "Server closed
the connection" error. This has been happening for a couple of days now,
and has also been tested through Meebo, verifying it can connect to the
server.
