Sorry, but I can't help you with it. The server is a new one and only for the employees which are being forced to use it. Besides they can't chat with the people outside (IM clients) though it gonna be fixed in Q1 2006. I believe there won't be public Comm.servers at all because this product is for enterprises only. So it looks like one will have to install the server himself or to get a job in some big company

At the moment I personally think looking at Windows Live Messenger is more important than this. It seems that we may be without Plus! for a very long time like the change from MSN Messenger 4 to 5.

This is just speculation and a opinion.

If no one is able to get you an account, Microsoft does have a free 120-day trial version of the Communicator server software available here:

Hope this helps, we're looking forward to having Plus! available once our company does its mandatory switch-over to Communicator!

Hello -

Is Plus! compatibility for Communicator still a possibility that's being looked into? Just curious, as nothing's been posted about it either way for a while...

Hi,

Our company is abandoning Windows Messenger and is moving to the Office Communicator
Any chance of OC being supported by Plus! in the near future?
I really need chat logging!!

Cheers

Office Communicator 2007 is supposed to come out in the second quarter.  My hope, from a usability standpoint, is that they're leveraging WLM almost entirely.  If that ends up being the case, then getting WLM Plus! working would (pipe dream) be a piece of cake.

I say wait and see a couple more months to see what the new version holds.

Patchou, are you still looking to add compatibility for communicator? Our company (60k Employees) switched too leaving me without MsgPlus

Indeed, supporting office/messenger communicator will be a gift to us all!!!! 

doolittle, are you working for a company starts with "M" by any chance...?

Hey Patchou, if you're bored, just write an entirely new front-end for Office Communicator.  MS just released the "Microsoft Office Communicator Web Access AJAX Service SDK".

So, what about it?

Patchou,
I have written a logger for Office Communicator and would like to know if you would be interested in collaborating on it.  PM/email me and I will send you some information about it.
