I think the duplicate status is wrong. Bug #677943 says this
"even if accounts results online, i can't see my contacts on the contact list window. they can see me the most of the times but i only see gtalk contacts, or msn contacs, or facebook contacts.. and i can't refresh in any way."
This person is saying that they CAN see gtalk, msn and facebook contacts. I cannot see MSN contacts, my gtalk contacts are fine and I don't use facebook messenger via empathy. While there are similarities, this person is referring to other accounts rather than MSN, while I am specifically citing MSN as an issue.
