Comment (by nynevergoingback):

 First, this behavior is not true for me.  I am currently using Pidgin
 version 2.0.2.  Second, buddy icons from other clients just show up
 automatically; you don't have to send any messages to see them.

 Replying to [comment:8 schoen]:
 > On AIM/ICQ, the icons do show up after messaging people (one or two
 messages in each direction) who are using libpurple clients, but not
 before that. But it works well for MSN.
