If this is the case then why can I successfully add in and log into Pidgin with
my other Skype account ? The only difference is that the successful account has
a hotmail email addy and the unsuccessful one has a gmail addy. Both accounts I
am able to access through and use Skype

Use a service that has at least one of:
- a published (and accurate) protocol specification;
- a protocol that is not encrypted, so reverse engineering is possible;
- an API with licensing conditions that permit its use with software under the
GPL licence.
Skype has none of these attributes, and will not be officially supported by
Pidgin until this changes.
