Hi...
Today my pidgin is refusing to connect to MSN and returns this error:
"Unable to validate certificate
The certificate for local-blu-people.directory.live.com could not be
validated. The certificate chain presented is invalid."
It would appear that Pidgin is distributing an intermediate certificate
for Microsoft Internet Authority than expired in 2011.
This affects all Windows users. Whether it affects users of other
operating systems depends on whether:
1) they provide a central store of certificate authority certificates;
2) Pidgin has been built to use that store.
As most of this is on another thread, you should subscribe to the

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.
