Microsoft Messenger doesn't use XMPP

Looks like it's no longer the case. Take a look at the following post "Anyone can build a Messenger client—with open standards access via XMPP".

The article provides links to development documentation and Smack based Android code samples as well:

"Developers interested in learning more about our XMPP interface can check out our code samples on GitHub along with the overview documentation on the Live Connect developer center. These should give you enough information to get started building integration with the Messenger network into your mobile apps, devices and web sites."

Microsoft Messenger doesn't use XMPP, so you can't connect to it using an XMPP client (which is what you're trying to do)
