Good luck -- WM5 & 6 is just one big mess, your best bet is to just not use
it. I've been beating my head against the wall with it for quite some time.
Keep thinking I can get it to work, and wind up with a zillion Messenger
contacts that can only be deleted one-by-one.

Your best bet -- skip the built in WM Messenger, and purchase a 3rd party
one -- check what's available at Handango. Live Mobile is about one of the
worst 'features' I've seen in any tech product.

i red definetly somewhere, if MS removed the enforced sync between MSN
contacts (aka windows live...) AND the Contacts (Outlook Contacts) in WM6.
It seems not happen truly. You could uncheck these possibilities in the
Setup or properities or what else, BUT when you begin to login into MSN, it
says he WILL sync all the contacts!

and it is a nightmare for me... I got some 4000 Outlook contacts and a few
dozen MSN contacts. when someone call me who is on both list, the WM6 shoose
him from the MSN list, not from the Outlook Contacts list. It has some
results...: Ringtone is not personal, no picture shown stored in Outlook
Contact, AND I am not able to call him back, since somehow the phone numbers
are not right formatted in the MSN (country code, etc.)...

so may I ask, if how could we remove this "service", which enforce the sync
between MSN and Outlook contacts from the WM6?

Thank you in advance!

Janos
