Yeah, I had a bunch this morning, too. Wondering if it's that I don't have the plugin configured correctly. -Original Message- From: Support On Behalf Of pid...@alexoren.com Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2021 2:27 AM To: Eion Robb Cc: Pidgin Support List Subject: Re: Pidgin WIBNI or option I'm just not finding On 2021-04-14 16:28, Eion Robb wrote: > Sorry about that.

All are aliased; I'd have said they were all set up the same, but something appears to be different. I am getting those all the time (for hangouts) and my ISP is stable, though my buddies tend to hop on and off. I could not find a way of disabling them. ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe? Use this link: https://lists.pidgin.im/listinfo/support
