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). _______________________________________________
