Greetings,
An online acquaintance of mine has recently came up with a rather odd problem in his AIM program.
He claims that for some reason, he gets an error every time he tries to IM me, yet he doesn’t have this problem with anyone else. He said he knows the problem, and his router is denying him from messaging certain IP addresses.
I personally have always thought that AIM works on a relay from one person – to the aim server – and then the recipient, and not directly to the recipient, which makes this entire claim sound bogus.
I should note that we connect directly through other programs, and I never have any problems sending or receiving messages through said program.
Is this something with AIM that I could probably help him with, or does this come across as a bogus claim where I should reconsider this person’s honesty?
Thank you for your time.
