Contact name by StardustPT on 01-08-2008 at 07:44 PM
One of my contact names is displaying the e-mail address instead of the name. All the others are fine. Is this a bug or something?

Has he ever actually been online at the same time as you? Has he got his name set? There are some other problems that could cause this though too
RE: Contact name by StardustPT on 01-08-2008 at 07:57 PM
Yes and yes. Also I've checked that my contact doesn't seem to have me on his list... But I am! I am even able to speak to him, so what's going on?
RE: Contact name by Spunky on 01-08-2008 at 08:39 PM
Are YOU on HIS list though? You'll need to ask him for a definate answer

Problem solved! Apparently there was some sort of bug at work, because in the Contact List Clean-Up it showed that I wasn't on his list, when indeed I was. So we both deleted each other's e-mails, added them again and his name was displayed correctly.
I don't know why this happened in the first place. Maybe he's been messing around with his contacts list.
Nevertheless, it's end of story for this issue.

Or perhaps he just didn't want to tell you he deleted you and instead blamed it on some 'bug'

LOL! Very unlikely.
