Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pidgin
I have Ubuntu 9.10 and prefer the Pidgin messenger service to the Empathy. I went to the Ubuntu Software Center and downloaded Pidgin. I have been unable to connect to my MSN account via Pidgin. I keep getting the message that my email address is disabled and that it was "Unable to Authenticate: Authentication Failure". It then prompts me to either modify my account or re-enable my address. Neither work.
