hi

i add my friends into msn using their email addresses…but somehow they either dun use their own name for the email or keep changing their display name, and i hv to mouse-over in order to know whose msn nick does it belongs to.

is there a way i can change the display name as per their normal name for me to easily identify?

thanks.

Yep, there’s a way.

Use the Custom Names feature in Messenger Plus! to set names of your choice for each contact. It’s nice and simple to use, instructions are all there in Plus!
