Can't sign in to MSN Messenger from PocketPC by jamiet on 12-30-2005 at 08:29 PM

Hi all,
I'm after some help and I'm hoping this is the place to get it.

I have recently got a Windows Mobile PocketPC (the i-mate Jam in case anyone is bothered) which of course has MSN Messenger on it. Unfortunately I can't sign in. When I try it just comes up and says "Check your username and password".
I know they are correct because I use the same all the time from my desktop PC.

I can successfully browse the internet and sync my Pocket Outloook over GPRS so it isn't due to a lack of connectivity.

Are there any pre-requisites to using MSN Messenger on PocketPC? Do I have to get my Mobile service provider (i.e. Vodafone) to enable it for me?

Any advice would be gratefully received.

Thanks
Jamie Thomson

Are you sure you're running the latest version of Messenger? It's something on the MS site...
