BETA 3: Disappearing IM Chat

Post by skyxliner »

middleman has been working fine for me with everyone else except one specific person. When I IM the person, the IM box reply for that person is blank. i.e. "tomatoboy. ". And i can't read their messages. previous to this with the older version of middleman, strangely same thing happened to the same person but in the past i could read the IMs, just the logs would be blank.

I uninstalled middleman and am able to see his messages again. is there a reason why it is only this one person?

Do you know if they are running any plug-ins or a different AIM application?

skyxliner, my guess is that your buddy is using a version of AIM (or a special font) that changes the type of text that is being displayed in the IM window. And middle_man is interpreting this as something different and thus not displaying it in the window.

PM me and we can discuss how I can make a fix for you.

I'm having exactly the same problem. Except it doesn't always happen. I have yet to know what produces it.

I too am seeing this issue with AIM 5.9 and a buddy who is using iChat.
