Comment:

 (In [cdf3615ec8283fb7d859b5cf3cb37855aa10182e]):[[BR]]
 The MSN servers are a bit more strict about what's allowed in emails than
 the libpurple utility function. Usually, they just return an error about
 the specific email and continue on with the rest, but for colons, slashes,
 question marks, and equal signs, they just disconnect you.

 So, when adding new contacts, or checking existing contacts in the address
 book, ignore those with slashes, question marks, and equal signs (colon is
 already tested).

 References #9505.
 Fixes #10549.
