Description Filipe Azevedo 2012-02-11 17:41:52 UTC
Version:           0.3 (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

I'm having a gmail/google talk account named toto@gmail.com I used the same for my msn account.
When i want to add contact i have to choose the account, but as only  login/email is listed in the listview i don't know which one to use as they appear with the same display text.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Use same email adresse for different account ( msn / gmail )


Expected Results:  
easily distinct account having the smae login / email

Please add details of account in the add contact dialog ( like im icon etc...)

Agreed, we should be showing the profile icon.

We already do. Rohan implemented it few weeks back. Also we have a patch pending that will enable you to easily change the display name in accounts kcm. Should be in 0.4 ;)
