I've been using GAIM to access .NET Messenger from Linux, but have just
upgraded my Windows partition to XP. When I tried to log in to MSN
Messenger, it said there was a mandatory upgrade, which I downloaded.
I am one of those people who actually reads small print, so I read the
licence terms and it seems to say that I may not use unauthorised
clients to access .NET Messenger. Not unsurprisingly, Pidgin/GAIM is
not amongst the small list on their authorised clients sites.
I abandoned the install to avoid agreeing, until I'd researched the
issue more.
Is there any news on this restriction?

Emails are not formal business letters, whatever businesses may want.
RFC1855 says there should be an address here, but, in a world of spam,
that is no longer good advice, as archive address hiding may not work.
