Yes, the yahoo servers went down yesterday for maintenance, according to http://www.ymessengerblog.com/ . There is now an update three on there that says the server is back up.
As I was writing this just now, I disabled and then re-enabled my yahoo account in Pidgin and it connected. Leaving the account enabled did not re-connect when the server went back up. I was originally posting because I couldn't connect! You can ping scs.msg.yahoo.com to make sure you have connectivity to the server. If you are unsure whether you are successfully connected to the yahoo network, add yourself as a buddy so you will always see yourself on the list when you are connected. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/outage-today---pidgin-tp20867087p20874644.html Sent from the Pidgin Support List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Support mailing list Support@pidgin.im http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
