Description Spencer Ogden 2004-12-04 17:29:10 UTC 
Version:           0.9.1 (using KDE 3.3.1, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.4 20040623 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.4-r1, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.9-gentoo-r6

When adding a contact from KAB which already as a IM screenname or UID, I must still enter the UID into Kopete.

Process is this:
1) Crate contact in Kontact and add an AIM screenname
2) Add contact in Kopete:
3) Then I'm asked which account type I want to add (AIM, ICQ etc).
4) Then I'm asked to enter in the screenname, even though it is already stored in Kontact.

I think when adding a contact from KAB it should list any IM accounts already on file and allow easy addition of those. Additional accounts can be added in the normal way later.

What exactly do you mean by "adding a contact from KAB?"

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
