Thanks for the help.

You know how to configure it to use a MSN server out there?

Try Bitlbee ! it's a IM to IRC gateway, there's a AmigaOS port of it but it needs ixemul.

It works pretty -good- in combination with AmIRC :-)

Well MS should really not bother looking at the Amiga market, as maybe like 100-200 of Amiga users use MSN accessible clients. Just a guess, not a fact by all means.

@Tomas

they are doing, a lot of jabber servers wont work with MSN anymore because they have been blocked, but new servers using new IP's are springing up all the time, so theres always a server to use :-)

MSN is the acronym commonly used for MSN Messenger. Which is a chatsystem very much alike ICQ.
