The best thing to have done. For your information, the
[email protected] address is for the Pidgin support mailing list, which
sends your mail to all the list subscribers. Remember, Pidgin is a
multi-protocol IM client, it isn't a product supported by a company, it
is written an supported by the people that wrote the code and by the
users.

OK, so Pidgin looks up the server you want to connect to....

And then discovers that it doesn't exist. I suspect that you have
mistyped the name. A quick check reveals that there is a
typists.quickstate.com, that may be running the server you need.

HTH etc.

BTW, please reply *only* to the list address, not to my personal email
address, because then I will get two copies of your email and I only
want the one from the list not the one that will otherwise come
directly from you. OK?
