I've had no _known_ losses of messages with the current licq, but these are some issues that I haven't looked into more closely: 1) file transfer does not behave the same as the "real" icq with regards to choice of ports - I don't know how it's expected to behave, but licq tries to connect to other ports on the remote client than windows icq. this breaks some masq/port forwarding setups on the remote side for example which works with the standard icq. more specifically, i think licq in the case I sniffed tried connecting to port 102xx something, while it should try on port 1280-1288 or something. 2) random crashes (dragging a file onto a name in licq crashes if you have a msg window for that user opened at the same time, or did it before at least, and some other things) 3) SMS is missing (but someone apparently submitted the code - can you please post the patch to the list as well ?) My SMS bill is climbing and I want to send thru ICQ instead :) 4) some messages from the server are marked as Unknown in the debug output /BW _______________________________________________ Licq-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/licq-devel
