[suggestion] Short contact names adjustment by Freeze on 08-20-2005 at 05:39 PM

Hiya!

I've got an eeny teeny tiny weenie suggestion, which should not be too hard to implement in some kind of next version of msgplus.

If I'm browsing through my contact list, and want to find a certain person, I love using the keyboard to find someone. The problem is, that MsgPlus shortens the contact names of people, but does not adjust the standard MSN Messenger way of browsing through the contact list, which uses the first letter or number of the email adress.

So my suggestion is, that MsgPlus would adjust this browsing so, that for instance, someone with:

Short contact name: John Doe
Email adress: DoeJohn@provider.com

is found by pressing the letter 'J' and not the letter 'D' as it is now.

Good Idea or bad one?

Can't be done, for the same reason Plus! cannot reorder  the contacts by Custom Name.
