Chat Log Naming Scheme by UFGrayMatter on 01-19-2009 at 09:36 PM

Does anybody know who Messenger creates the filename for chat log histories?

It looks like it keeps everything before the "@" in the email address and replaces the rest w/ a number code.  I'm interested to know so I can create a log from scratch and have it compatible.

Thanks!

The number code is the user ID, see this post for more information.

Hope this helps :)
