"Also, I tried to remove a contact from msn messenger in windows but it was still visible in kopete." This seems to be an endless bug in Kopete. There's no way to delete a MSN contact in Kopete for a long time, so I recommend you: 1. Live with it while this is fixed. I think it's easy, just see the server side list, check the local list and ask about every incoherence, but for whatever reason, Kopete just adds every contact that's in the local list to the server side list without even asking. 2. Use Gaim. At least in the 2.0 Beta3 that I'm using, it behaves exactly as I've described before, so now I have an organized contact list, without duplicated entries and, gess what? I can even move contacts from one group to another and they don't get duplicated when I restart Gaim!. Sorry, but that bug has been in Kopete for a loooooong time and I thought it was inevitable because I was using Kopete at home, at work and even I was using the official MSN Messenger client, but now that I've tried gaim and for the first time I have the same contact list everywhere I go, I just can't live with all that mess. Jose, could you also add your comment to bug 122317? *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 12317 *** D'oh, fat fingers |
