I will need to test it, I haven't used Empathy for a while. It will take me a couple of days or close to that.

In my Empathy I have four active accounts, which I will call: MSN A MSN B GTalk C Facebook D I have one contact that is available in all four accounts (its my wife :-D). Because she has the same email on both A and B, Empathy automatically links her on accounts A and B. I then link my wife's other accounts (on accounts C and D) to this metacontact. However I noticed that every once in a while (apparently when network connectivity is lost, or I restart the computer, or some other related event) the metacontact is lost and only the contacts on A and B are linked. Contacts on C and D are now separate. I noticed the same behaviour with other contacts, but it only happens for contacts that exist with the same ID in more than one account with the same protocol. In another computer I have the same behaviour happening with contacts that autolink on both GTalk and MSN, and in this situation the autolinks are kept, but other linking is lost. Contacts that are linked and don't have an equivalent in more than one account of the same protocol are not affected by this problem. I'm using Empathy 2.34.0-0ubuntu3.1 on Ubuntu 11.04.
