Re: [Ekiga-list] Microsoft Messenger and Ekiga

Well, I did a little Google searching and came up with this website.  Haven't attempted it yet, but doesn't look too complicated.  Should be interesting.

Hmm... so the "Messenger" that my friends use (I assume they all installed
the service pack 2 by now, since it's been a while already) can do SIP?
That'd be cool.  If/when you get it to work, can you add a little note on
the wiki (with an announce here) explaining how to get it to work with
Ekiga?  Even if you don't get it to work, please write how you *think* it
should be configured.  I don't have access to such an MS machine (thank
god), so I'd love to have such explanations so I can pass them on to
my friends.

Would my friends have to use an ekiga.net account from Messenger, or can
they use their "regular" account (whatever that means)?
