Comment(by glaubitz):

 Hi,

 I would like to add that the "Has You" flag might not be properly set when
 one party is using "Windows Live Messenger 2011".

 This is something I figured out during my experiments. It definitively
 works between "Microsoft Messenger for Mac 8" and "Windows Live Messenger
 2009" (the last version on XP). Also, I suppose but haven't tested,
 between two "Windows Live Messenger 2009" clients.

 I suppose the reason is that Microsoft dropped the feature for the 2011
 version anyway (they removed that part from the "Privacy" window) and thus
 2011 doesn't set the flag anymore.

 During my tests with Pidgin I figured out that the "Has You" might only be
 set to "Yes" in one of the party's account. So while it might be set to
 "Yes" for one user, it might be "No" for the other one even though both
 are using pidgin. I haven't, unfortunately, not yet figured out what the
 reason for that behavior is but should I figure that out, will I post that
 as well.

 Adrian
