[Bug 902850] Re: can't sign into msn with live id *@gmail.com

 

it seems this was an issue previously

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1479005

so i have fixed the issue but it does not lie with empathy, it is with
telepathy-butterfly and the use of certain domain email addresses with
login.

for anyone else with this problem, completely remove telepathy-butterfly
package and restart empathy. everything should work after that, as a
precaution i also removed and re-added my msn account in empathy as
well.

Title:
  can't sign into msn with some email domains

Status in “telepathy-butterfly” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  i am having trouble signing into msn using my live id which is also my
  gmail address. maybe that is the problem somehow as i can log in to
  msn using an older live id, although that one is @mail.com so i'm not
  really sure if that is the problem or not.

  when i try to sign in it just sits at signing in, watching from the
  accounts dialog, but if i enter an incorrect password i get an
  authentication failure as i should. any ideas?
