I'm trying to setup my Windows Live account (@outlook.com) in Empathy. It used to work OK on Ubuntu 12.04.4 64 bits. However, in 14.04 it doesn't works. When I add an account, it asks me for my username and password, I give it permissions to access my data, and the account is shown OK on the "Online accounts" window. However, when I go Online, Empathy shows a wheel in the middle, just turning around, but nothing else happens. After a while, it gives me a red error message "xxxx@outlook.com Network error" I have the debug in pastebin: http://pastebin.com/8vQdM4Pg
Microsoft shut down the XMPP gateway to their chat service, which is used by Empathy if you add your account to Online Accounts. See bug 728787
