Do something with the word filter so like....

__ is turned into Italics.
** is turned into Bold.
//   is a format reseter.

Then you can do.....Hello there , __Lucy// , How are you **today//

It isn't very conveniant but....

Well, there should be a registry entry or something that lets you change the character that represents the bold character or something... I dunno >_<

Sorry 'bout the quadruple-posting :\

you don'¡t need the //
you can type
Hello there , __Lucy__ , How are you **today**
it'd ake the same efect (the second __ and ** disables those formats)

you can't change that because your contact's plus!, when it gets the received message won't know what characters means bold, italics, etc...

Well, the basic idea of this feature is this: type _something_ (it would only work with one word, since otherwise, it'd get confused if you used the >_< or -_- emoticons), and the _ automatically gets translated into italics.

As for the registry entry, I know that the char won't mean anything to the other end; I mean somehow provide an alternate way to bold/italics/underline. When he puts the text back into memory to allow MSN to send it out, replace the chars you put in the registry with the proper B/I/U char.
