Are you having problems adding an account with a .UK address, or a buddy 
with a .UK address?

Either way, pidgin should more or less be passing what you entered 
straight up to the appropriate server, MSN addresses are not limited to 
@hotmail.com and similar Microsoft owned domains, my own is on a .CA and 
I have buddies on .UK who use pidgin (or at least have used pidgin in 
the past, at my suggestion)
