Note sure if this needs to be a separate bug, but what I found was that if I have a contact with a mobile #, and they are "invisible", they can send messages to Pidgin and I receive them, but any messages I send go to the mobile #. Interestingly, the other machine DOES see the "xxx is typing a message", but the message never appears - goes to the mobile. Steps to reproduce: 1) Set up two different MSN accounts - one for Pidgin, one for Windoze dead messenger 2) Configure the MSN Live messenger account with a mobile # to receive text pages and "allow users on my contact list to send messages" or however you enable that. 3) Using two computers (or running Windoze within a VM), Login using Windoze and set your status to "appear offline". Log in to Pidgin, too. 4) From Windoze, send a message to Pidgin. Pidgin gets it. 5) From Pidgin, send a message to Windows. The Windoze user will see "xxx is typing a message", but will never get the message - it goes to the cell phone.
As of Jan. 28, 2009, this is using Pidgin 2.5.2 in Intrepid.
