--- Comment #63 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello lain,
--- quote --- microsoft have abandonned msn server since long time this software is dead shouldn't we close this bug ? --- quote ---
even if the software is no longer useful on it's own, it still highlights a Wine insufficiency (bug). Fixing the problem here might help other applications.
There exceptions though, for example when the software can't be obtained anymore or requires some Internet connection with no longer existing servers. These bugs are candidates for being resolved 'abandoned'.
Regards
