I have been blocked but can still see contact ?? why? by bardo on 01-22-2010 at 09:02 AM

Hi

I have messenger for mac 7.0.2. I blocked an ex as I wanted to take some time before I spoke to him and then he found out and (surprise, surprise) blocked me in retaliation. All this is very predictable and not that interesting.

Then I was bored at work and signed in from my phone to speak to another friend. And I could see he was online and not blocked. And then I tried on web MSN in Windows live - same thing. When I sign in using 7.0.2 I can't see him. So does the 'block' not carry over? And even if so, if he has blocked me, I shouldn't be able to see him anywhere! How is this happening?

Obviously I haven't installed any strange patches. Just a normal user who isn't at all tech-savvy.

Info gratefully received! Thanks!
