Yes, it's reproducable in Kopete 0.12 as well.

However, I don't know what's the gain from reporting it to Adium developers. Their \
default policy is to redirect such kind of bugs (engine bugs) to Gaim developers \
since Adium is libgaim based.

But here is the funny part. MS MSN can display Adium buddy icons. Gaim can also \
display Adium buddy icons. Kopete can display MS MSN and Gaim buddy icons, but cannot \
display Adium. It seems complicated as to where this bug finally belongs :-/ Any new \
suggestions or the idea of reporting this to Adium remains the same ?

I have a feeling that MSN, Gaim and Kopete comply with whatever the MSN protocol \
defines for transmitting a buddy icon (such as the image size or something like \
that). Perhaps Adium does not, so Kopete refuses to display it whereas the other \
client accept to bend the protocol rules a little bit in order to display it. I don't \
know, this is just a wild guess (that came to me if I remember correct by browsing \
similar bugs in Kopete bugzilla when I first filled in this bug). \
