Comment(by CADE20):
I can confirm this for version 2.5.3, 2.5.5 and 2.6.3, so I think it is
indeed something has changed on Microsoft's side.
When you change your friendly name back, it successfully gets stored in
accounts.xml, however, the next time pidgin starts, this field gets
overridden. So even though it is a problem with the server, there might be
a better way for pidgin to determine whether to use the locally stored
friendly name, or the name the server sends.
