the only proviso is that you need a Jabber account somewhere.
this is a list of jabber servers:

I think mail2web runs one as well

cheers.. will look into it..
if only yahoo had their own app like they do for series 60

they used to.
you can still download it:
http://download.yahoo.com/dl/ce/ymsgr-ppc.exe
might still work
also forgot, agile messenger works quite well:

thanks will try those tonight..

Agile Messenger works very well, BUT after entering your account details, it tries to log in.. and tries, and tries, forever.
The solution is to press Next, then go to Options - Preferences, the last tab, and disable "Secure connection" or so.
After this, it worked flawlessly.

Cool... has anyone tried this yet? Is it WM5 compat? I would just download and test, but have just got my Uni the way I like it, don't wanna hard reset again!!
Regards

its a very old version of YM written for PPC2002. For some reason Yahoo stopped the project to support PPC. A big mistake as ICQ, MS and AOL do support it.

i heard that tmobile dont allow IM apps on their handsets as their current data deals for net browsing and email are not meant to be used for MOIP bummer

I heard they're looking to change that, based on the low bandwidth probably.

Tried Agile Messenger and it works great. Thanks.

Pocket MSN

Good morning Chaps and Chappesses.
I hope everyone is well and happy. I am really enjoying using my Ameo but I cannot remember how to re-enable pocket MSN which t-moblie appear to have removed from my device.
I had this same problem on an older PPC I had but I cannot remember what I did to resolve this!
I had pocket MSN setup on my MDA pro and #I found it extremely usefull for checking mail and msn messenger.
Can anyone advise me on getting this back on my device?
Mny thanks!!

if lots of you are interested, i can post a windows message live up here, it's the next generation of pocket MSN.

I'm interested

WOWZERS!!!
PLEASE!!!
I would love a copy of the live messenger!
If you could post it before someone decides its a bad idea and blocks out posts
I am rather annoyed that I cannot have my hotmail messages delivered into my inbox like I did on my MDA pro.
That saved time and effort logging into hotmail through opera.
I guess I will not be installing another T-mobile Rom on this device but I had better find a copy of the HTC advantage Rom istead for TOMTOM and pocket MSN.
I await the goodness of :Live messenger !!
thanks!

Does the Live messenger keep your MSN contacts isolated, or does it still import all your phone contacts and add them as contacts (like it did when i once installed it on universal, prompting my immediate uninstall)
Also, does it suffer from the same problem with the winxp live messenger where some of the more recent contacts you add never appear online, even though they are online ?

Interested!!

Yahoo Messenger

How come Helio Ocean has Yahoo messenger but there doesnt seem to be a released version for any Windows Mobile device or any other device for that matter?

Took me about ten seconds on google:
http://mobile.yahoo.com/mobileweb

http://mobile.yahoo.com/go/
That is for the Yahoo! Go download link above is if you want to do everything online hope that helps

its not out for most pocket pc's yet

It is now

Just checked. Dowloading it now.

Got it. Don't like it.
It's slow. And no Messenger. It's pretty and does email and those other Yahoo things, but not YIM.
Back to square one.

any update on this yet...?

Sort of, possibly.

I only browse these forums once in a while, but an update to this that might work out for you guys.
My wife recently got a (Cingular, oops I mean AT&T) Samsung Blackjack and it came with a link to install an instant messaging software package from OZ. I 'tested' the cab file out on my 8125 and it works in portrait mode, but you lose the text entry screen in landscape. It also does not accept touch screen input, as it was designed for a smartphone. The one caviat is that you have to keep and maintain a strong signal to use it effectively.
So if you know someone who has a blackjack, or maybe even another smartphone from cingular...err AT&T you might be able to access the cab from their phone and test it out on yours.
Daniel,

Messenger application

I know there was an old thread on here but I could not find it, so, forgive me to ask again:
What is the best Messenger application for WM5 / WM6?
I love the look and work of AGILE MESSENGER but the price is way too high for a program like this! Also: users get routed through their own servers to 'validate' the lisence. This causes time delay and additional data trafic each time you connect and in a long run you pay more than you would have to if you pay per data volume.
It would be great to find a program what does at least the main 4: AOL, ICQ, MSN, YAHOO. What do you guys use?

You could try Octrotalk.

Useful info here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=323654

you can try look for IM+.
this messenger can connect to msn, yahoo, google, jabber, etc...
if i'm not mistaken they also have a version which can connect to skype. but i'm not sure with this.

fring does all of them with the exceptio of Yahoo. Very light weight and supports voice on all. www.fring.com

im using im+ i can send it to you just PM for me

IM applications?

I've been looking around using the search tool for good instant messaging apps. But all the threads I've found were old ones. I want something free and new that can make at least hotmail (windows live messenger) work on Wi Fi. Because the windows mobile messenger refuses to connect via wi fi.
I've heard Beejive IM is good but I want to know the alternatives.
Oh and I use a Touch Pro.

Have you tried Qip PDA? It's free and i like it

Did you tried BeejiveIM (Multimessenger)?
Currently beta so it's free. Works for me.

all the good IM clients with multiple protocols aren't free such as IM+ and mundu.if you want free and don't use memory,get unlimited text plan and set aim/yim to always show u on mobile while you arent logged on a client or pc

parlingo maybe
