I’ve been enjoying my Sim ride<\/a> for some time now. With more confidence in it, I explore the menus and look for more features and configuration options. One of the things that I noticed is support for Yahoo! Messenger. It’s not on the list of features<\/a>, but it is in the menu (Connections » Connection Manager » New Connection » Protocols » Yahoo!).<\/p>\n

I don’t use any other protocols except ICQ much. But I do have a Yahoo! ID, so I thought I’d configure it just in case. I tried to create a new connection, but there was some strange problem. Whenever I would put my Yahoo! ID and password and try to connect, Sim would complain that ‘Login failed’.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

At first I thought that I was mistyping either the Yahoo! ID or the password. Double and triple checked – both are fine. I could login to Yahoo! with no problem. Than I though that something might be wrong with the Yahoo! authentication servers. I gave it some time. Then some more. And then yet some more. Nope, still didn’t work.<\/p>\n

Today I got bored with all this and decided to Google<\/a> for solution. You won’t belive what I have found. Of course, there is a bug<\/a> with Yahoo! support in Sim. But what kind of a bug! Sim does not support Yahoo!<\/strong> Not yet at least. They are probably working on it and that’s why there is an interface which is not functional at all. Heh.<\/p>\n

The good thing is that I didn’t go as low as compilation of Sim with different parameters…<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
