Hi, my Gmail on pdigin is still not working. The problem began when I
switched hard drive at the end of December when I instalerade Ubuntu 8.10 on
it.
  My two msn accounts and ICQ account works as before, but not G-mail. I
have the exact same settings in Pidgin at my other computer (Windows XP,
Work computer) that works without problems, and my wifes computer still
works without problems and she have Ubuntu as wel, same settings on G-mail.

Maybe i have to install Pidgin 2.5.4 insted, but its to much problems for me
as a normal user, i hope its coming son like a normal Ubuntu update. But i
think its taking to long time...
