Description Kelly Avery 2004-12-03 17:36:45 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.3)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
OS:                Linux

We have a firewall here where I work, and I cannot have a port opened up to facilitate this app working. Gaim has an option to use "HTTP method" for connecting to the MSN server, and this seems to work around this problem well. Otherwise it gives an error stating that it could not log me in to the server. Could this be implemented in kopete as well? I like kopete better than Gaim, but cannot use it here for that reason. Thanks!

My apologies, I'm kind of new at this! Thanks for your quick response,
and I'll do a more thorough search in the future. Looking forward to
kopete 1.0 and KDE 3.4!<br>
