           Summary: yahoo login fails in Kopete when password contain
                    non-alphanumeric characters
           Product: kopete
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kopete-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: dorin.scutarasu at gmail.com


Version:           1.0.0 (using 4.3.95 (KDE 4.3.95 (KDE 4.4 RC2)), Kubuntu
packages)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31-17-generic

My old password contained these non-alphanumeric characters ';/[', and each
time I would write my password to log into my Yahoo IM account with Kopete, I
would get an error message box (I don't remember the exact error message, but
I'll try to reproduce the issue to find the error message if needed). I tried
to log in several times paying attention that I don't make spelling mistakes
but I would always get the error message. After I logged in to yahoo in the web
browser and changed my password to something containig only alphanumeric
characters, I was able to log into my yahoo account in Kopete.

Oh, one more thing  - Kopete is awesome! Thank you to everyone who has put work
into making it a great instant messaging application.
