Hi, I use Debian Lenny, currently on KDE 3.5.9 and Kopete 0.12.7.
I have just switched back to using Kopete and started arranging my contacts by metacontact instead of loose single contacts for each account of mine. Though I find this functionality very clever, I had some problems with its behavior. Having one MSN Messenger and one Gmail account, I found the following issues. --- 1. Metacontacts' nicknames 1a. When merging two metacontacts (I always put the Gmail one into the MSN Messenger one, because I prefer MSN when I double-click), my Gmail contact name changes to the contact's current MSN Messenger nickname. This may be fixed by manually changing back the Gmail contact name, but this is a pain. 1b. If I manually fixed 1a, Kopete will "resync" the names when I put a metacontact in a group. This time, changing back the Gmail contact's name isn't much help, because Kopete instantaneously kicks the metacontact out of the group. I found these very annoying, because I have personally changed each of my Gmail contacts' name and don't want them to show whatever twisted nickname the person's using - and, worse, wouldn't like to have the nicknames on the headers of email I send. 2. Metacontacts' priority of accounts I couldn't find a way to customize a metacontact's "priority of accounts" (i.e. the IM system Kopete will use when I double-click on the metacontact). --- Are there solutions for any of these problems? I apologize in advance if these are not Kopete's fault, but I had no luck googling for solutions nor reading the docs. Thanks for your time, André
