Personally, I've stopped using empathy for lacking this feature and a few others that would not be appropriate to mention on this bug. This bug should be moved to a high importance status considering that people online can be abusive, annoying, stalk you, etc. Not to mention spam.
I read that the reason this feature does not exist is because of the "available to all" philosophy. How much truth I do not know. If that is true and is what is keeping this feature from being added, please leave your home unlocked at night. Might as well bring it full circle. -- Provide ability to block a contact https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557521 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
