I am new to all of this anonymity stuff and am trying to find a few friends to help. I'd like to use Pidgin to facilitate this. However, I seem to be running into trouble either creating the account or connecting to the service.
I have followed the instructions given here: https://help.riseup.net/en/pidgin with the only difference being that I used my riseup account name and password on the Proxy tab rather than the foo and hidden password. I get a window that says unable to connect. Have I entered something wrong or is this something that happens a lot? Or is there something more to this that I'm not getting? I'm running Windows 7 - I know, I know, but one has to start somewhere and this is a HUGE learning curve, especially for me. Right now I'm just trying to find someone who uses email encryption so that I can give it a try. I have set up a key, but I don't know anyone who uses this stuff that I can experiment with. Hope someone out there has some time and would like to play with a new friend. Iago _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
