Multiple names? by Lhademmor on 09-25-2005 at 05:51 PM
Is it possible for msgplus! to have a feature where you will have one name for one person and another for another?
That means: So my friends will see "A has logged on", my family will see "B has logged on" and everyone else will see "C has logged on"?

no it's impossible sorry 
well if you both had the plugin insatlled it could be but then it would be inpratical

That would be quite a good feature though. So then I can have a good old offensive name for my friends to see without my family getting mad

The protocol doesnt support one name for this contact another for that one etc. just like it doesnt support different DP's for different contacts

The only way you can have a name-per-contact is to use a plugin that changes it for conversations. It's not possible to do the same thing for the contact list, as that info is cached on MSN's servers.
