Hello,

I don't know if it will help you, but the following configuration works:

Windows Messenger 5.1 (win) <=> X-Lite (win)

Did you uncheck the .NET account at startup and check in the SIP
Communication service ? You may also have to configure advanced settings
for proxy, etc.

But be careful, windows messenger 5.1 does not support HTTP digest, and
it creates dialogs for instant messaging. It means that you cannot use
it with an ekiga account. Windows messenger generally has a strange
behaviour.

Good Luck,

yohann
