Not having got into this before.....

Can Amikit or my 1200 use some sort of messenger so I can talk to my friends on Yahoo messenger service?

If you don't want to visit other servers for different transports, try a logging onto server that has what you need.

jabber.me.uk has MSN and Yahoo.

Try this guide for Bitlbee which can be used with WookieChat.

Thanks :-)
jabber.dk does the job, I just learned that jabber.org do not have msn-transport.. I used that server because it was used in the guide.
Anyway, it works now, so I'm happy  :-D
