There is another method by using a proxy.
Features:
- Change initial status when signing in
- Send pings to the MSN Messenger server for keep-alive (MSN Messenger 6 does send pings itself, so this is only useful for 5)
- Logging. The logging functionality will log the complete communication between MSN Messenger and it's servers.
- Plugin support. With plugins you can make auto responders for MSN Messenger.
- Compatible with MSN Messenger 5 and 6.
Plugin features:
- Incoming/outgoing message parsing.
- Control wether incoming messages will be displayed in the local conversation window.
- Control wether outgoing messages will be sent.
- Send hidden messages (messages with Content-Type: text/msnproxy-hiddenmessage).
- Send 'local' messages. This are messages which are sent to the local conversation window. You can give them for example your plugin name as friendly name to make it clear to the user that it is a plugin notification.
1 Plugin is included in this release. It's called Wut. This plugin can detect if you're playing Unreal Tournament and remote users can ask the plugin by sending you a message beginning with '!wut'.
To write your own plugins, download the SRC zip package which contains the complete source of the Wut plugin and an empty plugin written in Borland C++ Builder which can be used as a template for new plugins.
Changelog since V1.10.00:
- Added: Support for hidden messages. They are sent using 'Content-Type: text/msnproxy-hiddenmessage'
which will be ignored by MSN Messenger, but not by MSN Proxy.
- Added: Plugin notification function when a message is sent (MessageSent). This will enable you to
detect wether a message has been sent, and to modify it and make it a hidden message.
- Added: FSendLocalMessage to THostInfo. This will enable a plugin to send a message to the local
conversation window. Useful for plugin feedback to the local user.
- Fixed: Stats weren't working correctly in the Wut plugin.
- Fixed: Restoring MSN Messenger registry setting for the MSN server to connect to on windows exit
didn't work very nicely.
- Some minor things which I can't remember at this time
