RE: Suggestion - Search in contact list
yea ive often thought about that, like I can remember someone's email but I don't know what their curretn nickname is, so being able to search for it would be good.

I could make a program to do it, but I think something like this would be better integrated into Plus! itself
SoundPacks   -   Scripts   -   Skins

that's not a bug, thats an unexpected feature

Weird, i was gonna suggest this about a week ago but was caught up in soem other stuff.

I often cannot remeber contacts email neither.

maybe type in a bit of a contacts email or msn name also, that could be cool.

Or, just turn on Custom Names.

you COULD use custom names but if your list of contacts is like 150+ then you don't really want to spend hours renaming every contact so you know who's who. I mean who DOES want to do that? I would rather this feature be integrated in plus then not. or maybe just a plugin...as long as it gets the job done.

I must say, I use the custom contacts, took me ages to change everyone, and I have to keep doing it again everytime I have to format, or something goes wrong and I have to fully uninstall, this could be a good feature!!!

this feature already exists, try using noroom's listmanager or Gilly Messenger
note that they're both seperate clients, and thus not add-ons... you'll have to sign in with those programs instead of msn messenger

The whole point in Custom Names is you then won't have to search!
