IMGroups users with other IM tools other than MSN and aMSN will find that their nickname in the group will be shown correctly!

 

Since IMGroups service compatible with multi IM tools, we got feedback that some users’ nickname in the group cannot be shown normally but showing “Group name”, this have caused inconvenience for group users.

 

According to our former announcement, this problem is caused because most IM tools do not support MSN Protocol “P4-context” , only Windows Live Messenger (2009 or lower version ) and aMSN support it.

 

But after many days work, we will update this feature today.  After update, IMGroups users with other IM tools will see their own nickname in the group correctly.

 

IMGroups Web Chat (Web, supporting, recommended)

Windows Live Messenger (2009, Windows, supporting, recommended)

Windows Live Messenger (2010beta, Windows)

aMSN (Windows, Mac OS, Linux/UNIX, FreeBSD, Maemo 5, supporting, recommended)

Meebo (Web, iPhone, Android, Windows Mobile, Symbian, Blackberry, Other Mobile, recommended)

Trillian (Windows, Mac OS, iPhone, BlackBerry, Web)

Adium (Mac OS, recommended)

eBuddy (Web, iPhone, Android, Other Mobile, recommended)

Miranda IM (Windows)

Pidgin (Windows)

Digsby (Windows)

 

Notice:

1.    If your favorite tool is not in the above list, please test it.

2.    Users with Microsoft Messenger for Mac (Mac OS) 2007 version and 2008 beta4 version will find that the problem still exists.  We are trying to solve it and hope to release it soon.
