Gaim don't want to automatically connect to hotmail

[bobbybionic]

When I have a new mail I ask to gaim to show it and there is an error (pwd is not available). I have to give my password everytime.

Do you have multiple hotmail accounts? What browser do you use?

 Hello
I have not multiple hotmail accounts.
I use firefox 1.0.7.

Works for me. I am using Dapper flight 5.

In Gaim > Accounts I set "Remember password" "Auto-login" and "new mail notifications"

I then sent an email to the hotmail account, a dialog pops up, I confirm that I want to read the email, and it opens a browser window logged into the hotmail account.

do you still have that issue?

[bobbybionic (boiteantispam)]

I don't know at the moment because I can't use Gaim here (proxy error, but
it work with amsn, but it's not the problem here ;-)
I will test in a few days.

Any news?

[bobbybionic (boiteantispam)]

On breezy it's always the same problem, I haven't try on Dapper.
If it works on Dapper it's cool, but I have not tried.
In a few weeks....

This happens on several versions. Gaim 2.0 beta 3 with fedora 5 has this issue. gaim 1.5 on windows xp also. So not ubuntu-related.
