[Gaim-devel] Re: GAIM Question

[Luke S. <lsc...@us...>]

yeah, I am aware that the block code in msn does not seem to work 
properly. I'm not sure of a _good_ work around. what i would probly 
suggest is to (as much as i dislike it)

1)sign off the account on gaim

2)edit the ~/.gaim/blist.xml removing permit and deny entries for your 
brother

3)sign on with some other client (either the official one or amsn) and 
fix the permissions. 

4)sign back on with gaim
