Title:
  MSN/Hotmail conflict on Empathy

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Hi folks, I've been using Empathy for 18 months now and until the last
  week or two everything has gone fine. I normally leave a Firefox tab
  at work logged in to Hotmail and run Empathy on my laptop at home
  connecting to multiple accounts including an MSN one. In the last few
  weeks when I've logged on to Empathy it as failed to connect to MSN
  and returns "Name in Use". The solution I found was to navigate away
  from Hotmail on my machine at work, after that MSN worked fine. I have
  checked and even though there is an option to login to MSN from a
  Hotmail window I have never selected it and logging in and out of MSN
  on the Hotmail window does nothing.

  Is there any way to fix this without a workaround? The problem only
  began in the last week or two.
