Public bug reported:

while "old"msn contacts, i.e. contacts that were already in my contact
list when I first install empahty are shown fine, however, when I add a
new msn contact, although the contact is indeed added (and the other
person sees my status as online and is able to chat with me), its status
is incorrectly shown as offline. I am able to chat with the new contact
if I select "show offline contacts", it is just that the status is shown
incorrectly.

How to duplicate the issue:

1. create a new msn contact
2. have the new contact sign in
3. notice that the status is offline

what should happen instead:
should see the status of the new contact as online
