Two accounts of the same type and messaging

Hello!
I have two different jabber accounts. Set of buddies on this accounts fully separated. But when I click one of buddy to communicate with, Adium suggest me to choice what account I want to use. How I can use only default account for each buddy?
Sorry for my English
PS: I think this bug
http://trac.adiumx.com/ticket/5152 relate to my question, but don't know exactly.

Just select the right account and Adium will remember the next time you chat with that contact.

Thank you for response. This method works.
But it seems to me that offer the choice of account is not natural. If I wanted to be able to communicate with a buddy using two accounts, I would add it to both accounts. Can you say this is possible in future versions of the program?

That's a good point. I'll see what the developers say.

The behaviour you have described is expected.
Developer Peter Hosey wrote:It's not perfect, but it's what we currently intend Adium to do.
He suggested to set up a couple of "Portable Adiums" with separate account lists if you want your IM sessions separate (Adium Wiki entry "
PortablyAdium").

I once read about such resolution. I will try it. Thanks for your efforts.
