Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc 3.4.6 OS: Linux When I try to log into Hotmail, it complains that 'The e-mail address or password is incorrect.' When I try to log in again from that page, it works fine. Tried with two different accounts on this system and on a vanilla Kubuntu Edgy installation.
I also see this on Kubuntu Dapper (KDE 3.5.2), which previously did not have the problem.
I see the same thing happening here, I noticed this started to happen at the same time as kopete was no longer able to automatically open the mailbox...both are certainly related. This is also under Gentoo with KDE 3.5.5; GCC 4.1.1.
This is happening to me as well under Kubuntu feisty (kde 3.5.5). My "hotmail" setting is to always ask for my password. When I click on "Sign in" the first time, I get: "The e-mail address or password is incorrect. Please retype the e-mail address and password, or sign up if you haven't already done so. Need help signing in?" I make NO changes and click on "Sign In" again and i am signed in. I'm trying to experiment with a few different "user agent" settings, but it seems everytime I go to hotmail, konqueror goes back to the "default" UA.
Same problem here - openSUSE 10.2 (KDE 3.5.5).
Same problem - Kubuntu Edgy (6.10) - Konqueror 3.5.5
I confirm this issue. It used to work at one point just fine, so I am unsure as to whether something changed with Konqueror or MSN Hotmail or both. I am using Kde 3.5.6
Could someone update the status here from UNCONFIRMED. As far as I can tell, it's CONFIRMED and should be able to be worked on. I am using Gentoo (i.e. compile from source is not a problem), and can apply test/patches if needed to determine where this breaks and why (assuming anyone has suggestions).
I have this as well, KDE 3.5.6 on Gentoo. It needs the second login to be relatively close in time to the first. E.g. If I wait 5 minutes between the first refusal and the second attempt then I need to do it twice again. If the second attempt it immediately after the first refusal, then it works.
Same problem in Mandriva 2007.1
Cannot reproduce on konqueror 4. I can login without any problem on hotmail.
As the original reporter, I can also no longer reproduce this (Kubuntu Hardy). Anyone else?
Note: Konqueror 3.5.9.
Cannot reproduce on 3.5.9 too.
If anyone else is seeing this as of Konqueror/KDE 3.5.9 please reopen.
