 I just noticed that apparently, my blocked users list is malfunctioning /
 not working at all.

 Twice today I've had someone on my block list send me an instant message,
 once over MSN and once over Yahoo.  For the MSN one, hovering over the
 buddy tip told me I had them blocked.  However, for both MSN and Yahoo,
 the context menu for Conversation options doesn't think I have them
 blocked.

 I can select the option to block them there, but Pidgin doesn't register
 this at all.

 This really needs to be looked into, as there are certain people I don't
 want messaging me, and with the block list not preventing those messages,
 then I will likely have to either hide under invisible or find another
 messenger program to use until the problem does get fixed.

 No debug log is attached because I doubt debug will help in this
 situation.
