Prehistory

Somehow a long time ago, nine years ago, I wanted a short and memorable mail ... and found a great option - newmail.ru
One of their second-level domains was nm.ru
In addition to mail and domain, there was also access via FTP.
A little later, I began to look for a normal ICQ client and found Miranda .
It was all that I need, and I'm with her so far.

Some time passed, and in my Miranda, besides ICQ, MSN appeared, which I connected using my memorable soap name@nm.ru

Time passed, and somehow I saw Gmail , and I stopped logging into my mail on nm.ru, because Gmail carefully raked mail over POP3 on its own.

N months have passed, and one time I went to the web interface of my native mail ...
Bah! Yes, they ate pochta.ru ! Well, okay, I thought, spat on a new uncomfortable web interface and forgot.

Jabber

Most recently, my long-time acquaintance decided to have a Jabber . Thanks to Habra, where I found out about a good link .
According to it, we chose a good server, with transports and a large uptime. During the selection process, it turned out that a friend has an account at mail.ru, and therefore there is a jabber.

- Wow! - I thought. - But my mail moved there too!
I immediately opened the domain domain Nm.ru, but I got a fig. Attempts to connect to the pochta.ru hmrr server with different combinations of my login and nm.ru domain did not lead to success. Apparently, no luck, I thought, and put aside the old “dream” - mail, MSN, JID of the form name@nm.ru.

So what am I talking about? Kip ...

I heard about the package, tried it, a good alternative to the official client.
However, Miranda is our everything, and I never used the bale, and I did not intend to.
Recently, the kip passed under the wing of RBC (which, by the way, was banned in my browser from time immemorial, it seems there were once banners or some kind of counters), after which the kip was overgrown with so many so-called “services” about which not two was written on Habré.

So yesterday, I accidentally opened the nm.ru again. And lo and behold - I saw a short list of services, and even Pong came to the ping! But authentication, of course, did not pass. Having logged in again on nm.ru, I was amid with pochta.ru, and having entered my login / password by pressing Ctrl + Enter I logged in ... to mail.qip.ru!

OMG! WTF?!?

Yes, so here. RBC has combined pochta.ru and kip. Now on all second-level domains, hmrr redirect on webim.qip.ru

However, the story does not end there. My account did not pass authorization, the server stupidly told me that my password was not the same, and to call me in any way . Rummaged on wiki.qip.ru, rummaged on forum.qip.ru, but found nothing suitable.
Along the way, it turned out that my name@nm.ru is just an alias attached to another login, but it was also possible to log in using the alias. There was also a web client, à la glam chat in Gmail. Which, oddly enough, also did not go online;)

With a real login, webim.qip.ru also did not allow. I even downloaded the spec. kip , qipinfium_pochta.exe;)
He also said that I have the wrong password.

I began to suspect that admin pochta.ru and kip mix in a blender a bunch of domains and accounts is not so easy ...
And then I ...
... changed the password through the web of kip mail. And lo and behold! I could connect to hmrr on the main login!
With alias, of course, nothing has changed.

What to do?

I opened the page with the registration of a new account, filled out the required fields and deleted the alias, immediately registering it again as a separate login. What is interesting, having confirmed the account on the link sent, I couldn’t go to the webmail of the bale for some time, but the jabber was connected immediately.

Hooray!

A blessing in disguise, and now my mail has gone through several rebirths and has become Jabber too.
Now I have mail, jed and msn - the same and beautiful, it is a pity that Skype does not allow using the dog in the login :(

Question to you,%% username!
And what else can I fasten to my mail?
