Well years of sending my iquiry msn messenger support replied with unusefull steps.

When you accept a request to add a person to your contacts list in MSN Messenger, you receive the following error message:

"Sorry, contact display name could not be added. Your contact list is full. Please delete a contact from your list and then try again."

The following condition may apply:

-You have 300 contacts on your MSN Messenger contacts list. The maximum number of contacts that you can have on your contacts list is 300.

Try the following solutions in the order that they are listed:

Delete a contact from the contacts list, so that you can add another contact.

1. Start MSN Messenger.
2. Right-click the contact who you want to delete, and then "click Delete Contact."
3. Click "Yes."
4. When you receive the request to add a person to your contacts list, clear the "Add this person to my contact list" check box.
5. The person will not appear on your contacts list, but she will appear on your "My Allow List" in MSN Messenger. People who are on your "My Allow List" can initiate a conversation with you even if they are not on your contacts list. You can also initiate a conversation with a contact that is on your "My Allow List" by using the contact's e-mail address.

To start a conversation with a person who is on your "My Allow List" but is not on your contacts list:

1. Start MSN Messenger.
2. On the "Actions" menu, click "Send an Instant Message."
3. Click "Other," and then type the e-mail address of the person to whom you want to send an instant message.

To view the contacts on your My Allow List:

1. Start MSN Messenger.
2. On the "Tools" menu, click "Options," and then click the "Privacy" tab.
3. View the contacts on your "My Allow List."
