Comment(by davidmarshall15):
Attached another example of this issue.
I used pidgin around 4 years ago, thought it was great on Fedora until an
error box popped up every time I logged in, so on Limux I simply switched
to another of the many clients available.
4 year later, today I try pidgin again and get the same error message on
Windows 7 (attached above), now I remember why I stopped using this IM
client.
The summary of this issue is:
* Error when connection to MSN with a username like
"username@'''yahoo.co.uk'''". Yes my Microsoft MSN username does end with
yahoo.co.uk!
* It only happens with pidgin
* I have experienced it on Windows and Linux
So I will not be using pidgin, but please consider I have taken the time
to register and post this update for the devs on my way out.
I sincerely hope it is fixed soon for others and at least before I forget
about the issue and try again in 2016!
