Bug Description
I discovered a strange bug in Empathy (it could have already been repaired though).
Useful information:
* Empathy starts up automatically when I log in
* Most of the time is starts as Unavailable or Away (I think it restores the last state)
* MSN chat
Problem:
Here's what happens
* Get contacted by a spammer
* Open Blocked Contacts list
* Click on the window to view spam
* Choose Contact->Block contact from chat window
It actually erases (usually) one or two other entries in the Blocked Contacts that were already there. Thus I end up getting contacted from other spammers. I couldn't figure out what was going on for the longest time until I saw that. If I add them manually to the Blocked Contacts list it seems fine.
Sorry I realize it's a bizaro issue to report but there you have it.
