Description Tilman Klaeger 2009-07-17 19:30:16 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.2.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package

Usually I change the display names for my ICQ contacts, so I have a John Doe rather than CodeFre@k85 in my contact list. It would be nice if Kopete could export these "changed names" into the ICQ Alias field, so that when using a different client (e.g. ICQ2Go) it shows the same names as in Kopete. Also the status message "User CodeFre@k85 is reading your status message" looks better when showing the same name as in the contact list. A manual update is already possible, when showing the user information, but having an automatic update would be nice to have.
btw: Thanks to all devs for this great piece of software!

I create patch for update ICQ contact alias on server side.
It is on http://reviewboard.kde.org/r/3062/
