Question

Use iMessage Mac with MSN Live Messenger?

Feb 19, 2012 12:13PM PST

I just got the beta version of iMessage and I like it a lot. I have previously used Adium and I have friends on so many chat services such as AIM, Yahoo, and Google Talk. Most of my friends are on Facebook Chat and MSN Live Messenger though. After posting on another forum I was given instructions that can be used to set up iMessage through Jabber. It worked very well but the person who responded said that MSN Live Messenger can also work through Jabber but the instructions he had didn't work. Has anyone been able to get iMessage to work with MSN Live Messenger through Jabber? Thanks.
