Windows Live Messenger Translation Bot: Time To Say Goodbye To The Prototype

As I already mentioned in my Windows Live Translators post, the new Windows Live Messenger Translation Bot (Tbot) has mtbot@hotmail.com as its Messenger addy. If you still have the prototype, mtbot-en_us@hotmail.com, on your list it’s time to say goodbye to that one.

It will no longer accept translations and will forward you to Tbot, if you catch it online at all that is! In a week’s time it will be switched off forever as Helvecio needs to re-purpose his server for a new project that he’ll introduce in a few months.

P.S.: If you are experiencing trouble signing in to messenger (or messenger kicking you off), know you are not the only one. We are experiencing the same issues, it’s something serverside. Hopefully it’ll be fixed soon.
