Description Christophe Delaere 2007-06-19 20:59:44 UTC
Version:           0.12.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
Compiler:          gcc version 4.1.2 20070502 (Red Hat 4.1.2-12) 
OS:                Linux

When I add a AIM contact whose screen name is just digits (123456789) it stays offline, and that contact cannot see me online.
Starting another AIM client, it works automatically, so the correct contact list is well sent to the server. Also, I have no problem with other contacts.

To reproduce, just add as contact somebody (AIM) you know is online whose ID looks like "123456789".
You expect to see him directly online and to be able to discuss... it stays offline.

Already done for KDE 4.
