 Hi,

 This is hardly a major issue, but i think that addressing it would enhance
 the user experience by giving a less cluttered UI.

 I have noticed that when using two accounts (in this case MSN), a contact
 that is on both accounts appears twice on the buddy list. As i use two
 accounts for work, this has resulted in a very messy buddy list!

 I appreciate that this is a useful thing for many users, but i think it
 would be good to have the choice of filtering duplicate contacts, and then
 giving the option of which account to use when opening a conversation with
 them.

 Of course, if it is already possible, i apologise and vow to rtfm ;)

 Thanks,

 Gary
