RE: print contactlist
You (or someone else) could write a simple script that could output names, psms and emails... Possibly even insert pictures into a .doc file if it was advanced enough

RE: print contactlist
As SpunkyLoveMuff said, someone could write a script to do this, but as far as I know, such a script doesn't exist yet.

There might be some other options though:

  • You can export the e-mail addresses of your contacts:

    • In WLM, go to 'Contacts' -> 'Save instant messaging contacts...'. This will save a file named "Contacts for [account name].ctt", rename the .ctt extension to .txt and open it in a text editor. All you have to do now is to remove the xml tags and add whatever info you want to the list.
  • Are you using a Hotmail account to log in to Messenger?

    • As far as I know, your MSN/WLM contacts are added to your Hotmail Contacts as well. You could just go into your Hotmail Contacts, click 'Print View' and print them or copy/paste them to a text file.
  • Take a screenshot of your contact list and print it.
