New description:

 Hi. As I said in the title, MSN gives '''switchboard errors''' (something
 as ''Message could be not send because of a timeout. Message not sent
 because of a switchboard error'', I'm Italian) every time I try to send
 messages to any contact.

 To be precise, when I open a new conversation I can send without problems
 the first two or three messages, then my interlocutor stop receiving new
 messages I write and after ten or twenty seconds I get the switchboard
 errors. So, practically I can't have any conversation at all.

 I'm experiencing that problem from exactly ten days (since Dec, 3rd). I
 did not changed my network setup recently. MSN works well with the
 Microsoft client and with the Hotmail online interface. The problem occurs
 with both Windows and Linux version of Pidgin, from two different PCs
 (Windows XP and Xubuntu Linux connected to the same home network, first
 wired, second wireless). The problem occurs also using HTTP gateway in the
 MSN account preferences.

 I attach the '''debug log''', created running Pidgin on Linux, logging in
 MSN, picking a contact (lorenzo.89) and sending a "test test test..."
 message to him three times. Only the first message was received by that
 contact. Then the switchboard errors are showed to me as said before.
