After MSN Messenger is set up as Eran has indicated, there is one problem that you may encounter(at least from what I have seen from experimentation). After registration is successful, you will be signed into MSN Messenger and everything will appear as normal except that all of your contacts may appear as Not Online (RED). This is because MSN Messenger sends a SUBSCRIBE for each of your contacts to the specified server. If this server can forward the SUBSCRIBE to the appropriate contact or forward the SUBSCRIBE to a presence server, a NOTIFY reply should be generated. When your MSN Messenger RTC Client receives the NOTIFY indicating that the contact is online, the Contact will appear as Online (GREEN) and everything should work from that point forward. If the NOTIFY reply is not received, the contact will appear as Not Online (RED). Incoming calls and messages can still be received in either case.
BTW, MSN Messenger 4.6.0077 is now available.

You need a local Proxy server (even a redirect server is not enough) In tools->Options->Accounts Choose Communications service And uncheck all .NET related stuff. In Communications service account pick your sign-in name. Click advanced... and enter your Proxy server address. Once you do sign-in the messenger will send REGISTER to the Proxy. If 200 Ok will be returned you can make calls to your mates (if the proxy know how to resolve their address) and upon INVITE will forward the INVITE to them. If you have a redirect server that will return 3xx, The messanger does not support that and the call will be terminated. I am talking of messenger version 4.6 (4.6.0076) The latest I think.
