Ah, yes, I should have clarified that. I thought it would be implicit in my remarks about mobile phones icons, about this behaviour changing in version 2.5.0 and about Pidgin showing them as "online", not showing them period....
I already have "show offline buddies" turned off, but Pidgin nevertheless shows some offline MSN contacts in my contact list, and shows them as online and available, with the green icon and everything. I have verified with Windows Live Messenger that they really are offline, and they don't appear to be receiving my messages. The common factor seems to be that all these contacts have a mobile phone icon next to their buddy icon in Pidgin. This is confusing and annoying, can I change this behaviour, or is it a bug?
