#9983: Privacy "Allow only" list broken using "msn/user at email.com" with Yahoo
account

Using a Yahoo account and Privacy settings set to "Allow only users on my
buddy list" or "Allow only users listed below" and unblocking individual
buddies, will not work with MSN contacts (ie: msn/user at hotmail.com). It
will allow for you to IM them, but it will drop their IM to you.
Problem is that the Privacy list uses "msn/user at hotmail.com" instead of
"user at hotmail.com" which pidgin seems to expect as the actual contact
address for blocking/unblocking purposes. Manually adding the contact
name without the "msn/" prefix to the allow list is the workaround.
Recommend that be done automatically so that "Allow only users on my buddy
list" will work.
