Adium 1.4b17 Message Error when sending a link

Post by daleal »

Hey guys,

Congratulations on the Adium IM, this is the best IM ever for the Mac.

I would like to notify you about a potential bug that I have been noticing lately. I guess it started after I updated my Adium to the latest beta version. It's that every time I try to send a message and paste a link to the message, the message won't go. Example below trying to send a message to my friend on MSN:

11:52Message could not be sent because a connection error occurred:
11:52ahahahhaahaa http://oglobo.globo.com/tecnologia/mat/ ... 772793.asp
11:52Message could not be sent because a connection error occurred:
11:52ahahahhaahaa http://oglobo.globo.com/tecnologia/mat/ ... 772793.asp

But if I remove the http:// from the URL, then it goes perfectly fine.
Denis 11:54 hahahahhaha oglobo.globo.com/tecnologia/mat/2010/02/03/mulher-britanica-emagrece-50-kg-gracas-ao-wii-fit-915772793.asp

Tested the same message on GTalk and AIM and it works on both, so it seems to be an issue with MSN only.

Hope that helps you guys make this software even better!

Thanks,

Denis

I'm glad you're enjoying Adium.

What you're seeing is probably censoring on the MSN servers' part. See http://trac.adium.im/wiki/MSN#a3.Censorship for more information.
