i want to connect to yahoo instant messenger servers through Gaim. i am behind proxy that only allows http. i have set the proxy settings in gaim options appropriately and have also set the enviornmental variable HTTP_PROXY to the address of the proxy. but am not being able to connect. the error is "unable to connect"
Last I read, gaim's yahoo transport is broken. Yahoo's own client works. As does ayttm(though I have issues sending messages to people who are invisible in yahoo)
-- cheers
