Bug Description

Binary package hint: empathy

When trying to contact MSN contacts who are using the Windows MSN client for Mac (version 8.0.1) no messages ever go through. This is repeatable with anyone I work with who have a mac. if I ask them to send me a message I get it but when I reply they get nothing back. This issue started happening in the last 2 weeks. I get no errors when I run empathy from cli and try send a message.

Thanks

I have tested comms to 3 different mac users, 2 of them use adium and the other messenger for mac. they now all can chat back to me.

As far as I'm concerned this is fixed.

Thanks
