O.P. Preferences and Default configuration
I have several people using the same computer, and I want to be able to seperate their chat logs by default. Something like "D:\Chat Logs\<email address>".

Is there any way to configure this to happen automatically, so that the first time someone@hotmail.com uses Messenger on this computer, his chat logs go to "D:\Chat Logs\someone@hotmail.com\" by default?

Windows XP
MSN Messenger 6.2.0137 (Neowin MSN skin)
3.25.106

nope, not possible to do that automatically with (edit: the current version of) Messenger Plus!.

However, you could write a small script that will install Messenger Plus! and right after changes the preferences in the registry...

Well, yes and no actually... you can set the default settings for any user by creating keys in \Nobody. However, you can't add parameters such as the email of the contact.

Indeed.

Automatically setting the logs folder the first time a user logs in with Plus installed
My Documents\My Chat Logs\passport_email@hotmail.com\

Shouldn't be too hard to program :-/
