Hey Evan, rekkanoryo told me clientlogin is now required to use SSL for ICQ. Then I thought, this is newer, it is on by default in Pidgin and working there reliably, so we probably want it on for AIM too. I might very well have been wrong in that, I did (and really still do) not know at all how they actually work and I do not know what issues it had in the past. So I changed it intentionally, but if this is broken because of that then we definitely should change it to only apply it for ICQ. Thijs
