In newer versions of Pidgin, edit the account, on the "Advanced" tab leave all settings set to the default values except change "Connection security" to "Require encryption." In this case Pidgin will bail out upon login if it isn't able to establish an SSL/TLS connection for something. In older versions of Pidgin, if "clientLogin" is turned on then authentication will always happen over SSL/TLS. I don't remember the specifics about whether IM and buddy list traffic will be encrypted... I think it depends on the version of Pidgin you're using. Newer versions tend to request encryption for IM/buddy list when available, but I think they're still willing to connect even if the server doesn't allow an SSL/TLS connection. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
