Whenever your jabber client sends remove authorisation packet to an MSN user, MSN-t adds that user to your block list. If your client supports XML streaming, this is what the packet looks like for me <!-- This is the remove auth packet --> <presence type="unsubscribed" to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" /> <!-- This is what removes the user from your contact list --> <iq type="set" id="ab0ca" > <query xmlns="jabber:iq:roster" > <item subscription="remove" jid="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" /> </query> </iq> My client by default doesn't send a remove auth packet to users when they're removed from my list, so if I delete somebody, they are still subscribed to my presence. Have a look and see if yours does. The reason MSN-t does this is because there is that after authorising an MSN user, the only way to stop them from seeing your presence is to block them. Blocking them also means that you will not receive messages or other auth requests from them. The quick fix is to resend auth to those people, your client should have an option for this. In Psi it's right-click -> Authorisation -> Resend Auth <!-- This puts the MSN user back in your allow list --> <presence type="subscribed" to="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" /> Hope all that helps. - --- James -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/rBGecyzaDGfRzi4RAqqIAJ0cs4/t8H22QpJxm+BVVrODNMJS0wCgpc72 4RKoI+K31wttRpK2GAWCpcY= =l59n -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev
