Here's what you do...

The trick is that you don't type the hotmail URL
but the passport URL...

eg.
Instead of: goodvibe%hotmail.com@msn.jabber.com
you type:   goodvibe%passport.com@msn.jabber.com

It's not obious in the docs...

So Add new contact by by typing inn the jabberID as mentioned above, give name and thats it!

Be sure you're registered on msn.jabber.com
it should look something like:
msn.jabber.com/registred
in the window...

And the thing about importing contacts I'm affraid you'll have to do it by hand, one at the time... But don't hang me on this :-D

Good luck
write if you have further problems...

Hey, Blomberg... ja, det er altid at møde danskere på nettet! :-)

@blomberg
Ehm... I think it should work just fine
but You'll still have to add the %passport.com instead of %mail.dk in the ID-thread...

I think all of the hotmail and extern adresses are controled by the passport servers...

But it's pure guessing... :-?

And Jabber shouldn't mess with your passport account at all, it has its own account system which is why I guess that you'll have to enter all of your adresses by hand...

Note: You'll have a new contact added correctly if a light-bulp is on the left of the name...

My Jabber sometimes just write the name with black italic letters... It's a sign that it doesn't work :-8

---Håber det hjælper!---

Hmm...

This is wierd...

I've just added a friend who uses MSN...

And Jabber wouldn't reconize the %passport.com string, so I tried with %hotmail.com instead...
It worked fine then... Strange :-?...

Are there any technicians on this boat? :-P

Hmm... Seems I've missguided you a bit blomberg
:-(

sorry...

You've got to try the:
"If-this-doesn't-work-,-I-must-try-the-next" -method :-D

Regarding the ICQ question:
Jabber handles the ICQ protocol quite better than strICQ does, [In my opinion]

I'll try to figure this problem out...

Ciao!
