Angel,
There is a disclaimer on the SIPE project page that states:
*The Pidgin project does not support third-party plugins!*
Since you're using SSL, there are scenarios where certificates can expire
or not be trusted by your machine. To continue using the plugin
immediately, try using TCP.
Thanks!
Would any of you be interested in proposing a name for another project?
If so, we can take it offline from the mailing list as to not go off topic.
