Hello Imified

We are using imified for an actively used bot, on Yahoo Network. For some reason we recently changed the Yahoo Password and disaster happens afterwards. The bot become very unstable and randomly disconnected from Yahoo Network.

We note:
- bot randomly disconnected - sometimes bot immediately disconnected when we initiate sending a message

It seems that our new Yahoo password is not properly recorded or distributed in your system. Because we also very often get a message "Invalid Password" when try to reconnect (deactivate then reactivate) Yahoo. Strangely enough after several clicks we can activate Yahoo network without changing the password we entered.

Also we note that sometimes when we try to activate Yahoo Network, it took sometime and finally it said timed out while trying to connect. On the other hand, we watch on our messenger that the particular user used in the bot was online for a few seconds, sometimes it stays online but imified bot console said that its not activated.

Our bot client also reported that sometimes my bot responds "[bot name]@bot.im is not active!"

In my situation, perhaps it will be helpful if there is a way to connect/disconnect to a network through API so we can integrate the connection thing in our bot application.

thank you and best regards
