Again I was not CC'ed in the replies... probably the list
configuration is munging the reply-to header, which is not good[1].

Anyway, replying to Stephen Holt; there's only one feature the stock
prpl has that msn-pecan doesn't have: support for yahoo contacts.
However _no one_ has ever asked for that feature.

And replying to Jordan; these are the features msn-pecan has, that the
stock prpl doesn't:

 * Support for direct file transfers
 * Support for winks (animoticons) (view-only) (Pidgin)
 * Support for Plus! sounds (receive-only)
 * Option to hide Plus! tags

I'm not sure if winks actually work on Adium... Devid should know.
