Hi there,
How does the contact list work on Trillian messenger? On MSN messenger, when I look under privacy it shows up that I appear on this particular person’s list. But when I downloaded Trillian and it had popups showing who all had added me to their lists, this person’s name did not show up. I was wondering how that happens. In Trillian, do you have the ability to have someone on your contact list but not be notified when they are online.

I know someone who uses Trillian messenger and I think they took me off their list because when I downloaded Trillian and all the names of people who have added me to their list popped up-his name wasn’t there. But when I look under privacy settings at who has added me to their list-His name is there. Is it possible that he just shut off the alert to be notified when I come online or something. I know it’s a confusing question but any insight would be appreciated.No need to post twice, we heard you the first time.
The list you’ve found in MSN is also available in Trillian: in 0.74 go into prefs and it’s under Chattings Services->MSN->Privacy; in Pro click the MSN connection button (the blue circle) and choose Account Preferences and look on the Privacy tab. I can clear this up for you: I’m pretty certain that this is the list of people that have *ever* added you to their list, even if you’re not on their now. They may drop off of this list eventually, but I don’t think it happens the second they remove you.
The authentication messages (the little popups) are a little more tricky. If you’ve let someone add you to their list in MSN then that choice should still be true when you add that account to Trillian, in theory. However I have seen Trillian reask me about people who I know I’ve accepted before, so I guess this doesn’t always work. Basically, I wouldn’t use these popups as a guide to whether or not you’re still on someone’s list.
