MSN 7.0 colour codes are not supported. They look like ·$NUMBER and are simply shown unparsed:

I agree that actual support is a mere be a wishlist item, but please treat not filtering out the mark-up codes as a bug.

Comment 2 Matt Rogers 2005-05-05 02:32:44 UTC

If you want us to treat the non-filtering of the mark-up codes different, then 
you need to file a different bug.

Hi there, sorry for the bad news, but WLM has been discontinued by Microsoft, so this bug will be closed.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!
