Well, it is not the first awful thing they do, isn't it? :)

Subject: [py-transports] Max MSN transpor password length
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I'm not entirely sure why this bounced, but here it is posted to the
list:
Seems a user of mine had problems logging on to the msn transport but
it worked with messenger and on the passport web pages. After a bit
of investiagtion it seemed the problem was because of a lengthy
password. His was 17 digits long, and that was at least too much. If
this is not a limitation i MSN/Passport services, howcome we have
this limit on the transport?
When the user registers the transport everything seems to work, but
after registration it does not log on (password error). If I look in
the xml spool files the password there is correct with all 17 digits.
So the error seems to be at logon, not registration.
If there is a good reason maybe we should provide a better error
message for the user.
Have a nice sunday! :)

There must be a better way to receive offline messages, because the
old v7.5 clients are getting them. (when sent from v8)

Another one that bounced:
OK, I am a bit wrong here. It seems that the web pages for msn
messenger,
and the messenger client only accepts 16 chars in the password. I did
not
notice this cause I was using copy+paste. The Jabber clients, transport
registration web form and PyMSNt have no limit on the password and
hence get
an error when sending a password with more than 16 chars.
Maybe we should limit or drop 16+ chars? This is a minor problem but
caused
headace for me and the user, might be minimized by some minor fix. ? ?
Sorry for the bad research before my original mail.
