If you want to test this, add the following line to /etc/hosts
35.185.201.91 messenger.hotmail.com
Messenger:mac 3.0 wasn’t released for Mac OS Classic. In fact, the versions released aren’t separated by Classic Environment/OS X compatibility. Can you at least double-check your claims first?
Then why one post said “it crashes” on Messenger:mac 3.0 and then a “issue” on gitlab says that yes, indeed it works…
The gitlab issue was made on June 2017, back when Escargot was still new,
The post was made on December 2018. So what got broken up in that 18 month period?
That had nothing to do with my post…
Anyways, are you talking about this?
Because that was about 1.3, not 3.0. And 1.3 crashed for me on SheepShaver, too, which I predict is no more that an emulation bug. Regardless, please read what I say before you ramble on.
Did you read that post?
Yes, but the main focus of the thread was about Messenger:mac 1.3. Also, note how the OP says that 3.x freezes during the authentication process? That just means it isn’t usable due to something wrong happening in the login process, which is easily fixable.
Just in case I have Mac OS X Tiger, not classic.
How can I use it?
version of macintosh pls?

work with MSN Messenger 8.0 on mac ?
I tried to patch Mac Messenger 8.0, but it doesn’t work
Oh
I think that version is probably incompatible from what I gather.
Try using version 3.0.
Holy crap that actually worked, I also tried 2.5.1 on Mac OS 9 and that didn’t work but 1.0 did! I now have MSN working on Mac OS 9 and Tiger.
If anyone needs the clients for Mac OS 9 or X I’ve uploaded them to my website Old Mac Downloads
Messenger 8.0 for Mac Actually Sort of works, It just complains about the certificate and refuses to log in but other than that it somehow connected, Juuust have to figure out the certificates
