[Bug 559692] [NEW] Empathy and Emesene: "Authentication Failure"

[Fábio Lima]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

Empathy and Emesene can't connect to MSN messenger protocol. Tried to
retype login and password many times. Always returns "Authentication
Failure" message.

But aMsn, another messenger available at synaptic, works fine. It
connects withou troubles.

A friend told me today that he experienced the same trouble on Fedora
some time ago. He said that It happens when login name doesn't end with
"@hotmail.com" (my login ends with "@superig.com"). He said that the
problem was fixed later.
