O.P. Microsoft doubles contact list size to 600

For the second time this year, Microsoft has doubled the maximum number of people you can add to your contact list. In March, the 150 limit on the Allow list was already lifted up to 300. And since a couple of days, you can currently add a grand total of 600 adresses to your contact list.

The expansion was initially discovered by Messer TTKarl (see his screenshot) and considered to be a glitch in this Mess.be forum thread. BenCastricum later confirmed that his bots stopped adding addresses at 600, although the MSN Messenger Technical Support team is not yet fully aware of the change.

You will not need to update your version of MSN Messenger, but keep in mind that the size of your contact list often affects the length of the sign-in process.

well, and here i thought i was about to run out of room :cheesy:

600. That's just obscene. Who in hell would need 600 contacts, minus bots?

If you have 250 people on your MSN contact list, you need to get a life.
