#17029: AIM via improxy.smarsh.com results in SSL Handshake Failed

     Type:  defect    |     Status:  new
Milestone:            |  Component:  unclassified
  Version:  2.10.12   |   Keywords:  improxy.smarsh.com smarsh pidgin aim
----------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 So I have searched via Google for AIM via improxy.smarsh.com and found the
 suggestion to use improxy.smarsh.com port 5191 and disable "Use
 clientLogin." I also upgraded to the latest version 2.10.12 which seems to
 have some fix applied relating to a similar problem. The end result is
 with "Use clientLogin" disabled, I am "Unable to connect to authentication
 server: SSL Handshake Failed."

 If I enable Use clientLogin, I can connect to AIM using the
 improxy.smarsh.com port 5191, but it skips over improxy.smarsh.com and
 goes right to api.screenname.aol.com:443 with no proxy. I have tried with
 and without a proxy of improxy.smarsh.com in SOCKS5 or HTTP and then the
 default AIM settings in the Advanced tab Server slogin.oscar.aol.com but
 that just stays in Connecting... but nothing happens. Not sure how to get
 AIM, Pidgin, and Smarsh to all work in harmony; AIM and Pidgin work fine
 but adding in Smarsh seems to be a problem and Smarsh is complaining that
 none of my AIM activity is being received.

 Thanks!
