Trouble logging in MSN messenger with gmail

  #1  
Oct 6th, 2004
Hey,

I think I started a thread in the wrong place (Internet Explorer forum) so I'm posting it here since I cannot move the other one.

I got a gmail account lately and tried to log in on msn messenger and it doesn't work. Many of my friends did it but it doesn't work with me. Does anyone know what is the problem?

thx in advance,

Mat

Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2
MSN messenger 6.2.0137

To log into msn messenger with gmail account, first you have to register an account at https://register.passport.net/default.srf?sl=1 After reigstering, you should be able to log in.

Hope it helps.

Why even try to do that? Gmail has a notifier now, and it's going to be less of a "Shoehorn" approach than trying to get it working with MSN Messenger.

It will just setup a passport for your email to work with msn. You wont receive any junk from hotmail.
