I found that Adium only display my contact's status as "Away" or "Idle", even they set they status in "Busy", "Out to Lunch", "In a Call" or "Be Right Back". I want to know is it a bug or a wrong setting in perference.

I'm using Mac Mini G4 and MacBookPro Intel, Adium 0.89.1 and 1.0b20, my contacts were using Microsoft Windows Live Messenger on Windows XP. Protocol is MSN.

Thanks for your attention!

Adium treats these as a sub-status sort of thing of Away. Leave the mouse over their name for a second or 2 and it should come up with the more detailed status. There might also be a way to display some text next to their name with "Be Right Back" but I'm not sure if it's possible for MSN sorry.

Thanks your reply, m2e, but the status in the conversation window is only displayed "Away" or "Idle". I think it a bit confuse.
