this is a feature of amsn, if someones opens a conversation with me, even without sending me a message or typing one, a conversation window will pop up on my computer. Does that make sense?

Are you planning to implement this in Adium??

no it doesn't make sens or no you don't plan to implement it??
it is a great feature and I don't think it would be that difficult compared to the work already done on the program...

I think it makes more sense that you are saying. With that feature, you will realize that some people check your profile 3 times a day, you will see when people have something to tell you, but hesitate and then close the window, ect... In fact it s a good way to spy your buddies 8)

And you could make something to disable this feature for example in the settings, or instead of opening a conversation window, just open a little popup for a few seconds, there is an add-on for msn pc that has this feature as well.

Am I asking too much?

I think this is only in the MSN protocol…

So it'll be useless for all the AIM, Yahoo, Jabber, etc. users.

Adium is, never has been, and never will be, for sale. Although, I can be swayed by boobies. Sweet, sweet boobies.

You can make it a plugin, but it won't be part of adium.

That's fine, but you should have done it in a new thread and not derailed this one.
