Hello,

I already posted about this matter a few months ago, but i still have 
the same problem:

I'm getting spam on ICQ from contacts who are not in my contact list. I 
followed the advice that was given to me last time and used the official 
ICQ client to set my privacy options to
- "Only accept message from users on my contact list"
- "Do not accept world wide page messages"
- "Do not accept Email Express Messages"
- "My authorisation is required before users add my to their contact list"
- I didn't check "Allow others to view my status on the web"

and i still get spammed when connected using pyICQt (which is 99% of the 
time) and it started when i first switched my ICQ communication to 
jabber. That's why i suspect that pyICQt is somehow involved in this 
story even though I think those privacy features are supposed to be 
handled by ICQ's servers?

How hard would it be to either:
- set the default to only accept messages from the contact list and have 
pyICQt discard messages that doesn't meet that restriction
- fetch preferences from ICQ server and do the same

Anyway thanks for those great transports!
