Pidgin problem with MSN

Hi all, lately I am having an annoying problem with the Pidgin. After I upgraded it, it does not connect to MSN anymore using my account. I could login with my friend's account but not mine. The error I am receiving is that "Unable to authenticate: The e-mail address or password is incorrect" and sometimes I get an error message says again unable to authenticate but it does not say anything about the e-mail address nor password.

However I can login from amsn to my account without any problem. I checked my e-mail address and password multiple times, even I resetted my password but no use.

Also I removed everything related to pidgin and re-installed it from the repo, same result.

Below is a part of debug output which I assume it is related to my problem. Thanks in advance...

Re: Pidgin problem with MSN

I'd try to build the pidgin SVN / last stable source, and if the problem wont go away, file a bug to the pidgin devs, otherwise bugs.archlinux.org smile
