How To Add MSN, AIM, ICQ, Yahoo To N900′s Inbuilt Messaging Client
Sony | Feb 09, 2010 | Comments 37
I observed most of the people who have downloaded aMSN here are reporting some problems on signing in and using it but I and some of the people have no problems, okay anyway we got another application which allow us to configure and use the MSN and other services listed in the post title.
The application is Pidgin Protocols, looks like

and it can be found on the Maemo Extras Level catalogue, if you have no idea about the catalogue then you can found it here at How to add more applications to your Nokia N900.
Just install the Pidgin Protocols and configure it from VOIP and IM accounts in Settings.
If this Pidgin won’t work then just install MSN Protocol Plugin For Conversations And Contacts, looks like

open conversations-> New IM and configure your client and add your friends and chat.

we need to add your buddies manually, unfortunately it won’t get the list from your messaging list.
so it’s more like email than MSN? once i’m logged in, my friend on his account can see me, but if he talks to me, i don’t see it on my mobile.. do i have to add him first if i want to see what he’s saying? it sucks that amsn doesn’t work..
