Hi, Thanks very much for the reply.
I've built version 2.5.2 from source on debian lenny. However, offline messages didn't pop up when I signed in. I then rebooted into windows and opened windows live messenger. It came up with about 8 offline messages. Do you know what I'm doing wrong? Do I need to change some option or have some plugin installed? Also how can I test that I can actually send offline messages and they are getting through? Also, with 2.5.2 I seem to be getting ssl errors sometimes, but when I hit the close button everything works fine. So yeah the only thing that isn't working is offline messages. As I said I'm using the msn protocol. Any ideas? Thanks for any help Cheers, Daniel On Sat, Dec 13, 2008 at 10:10:47AM -0800, Mark Doliner wrote: > On Sat, Dec 13, 2008 at 1:31 AM, Daniel Dalton <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > How can I view my offline messages with pidgin?
