| | Unable to remove user I'm running MSN messenger 6.0.3 for Mac and when I try to delete a contact (who has not deleted me but has abandoned that email address), I get the message "The server was unable to remove the user X from your contact list. Please try again. What's with this? What can I do to remove it? |

| | Re: Unable to remove user I've been having the same problem for months. I tried this suggestion, but the contacts don't even *show up* on my contact list through Live Hotmail. If I log into Messenger from a PC, there's no trace of them, but as soon as I log in on my Mac, there they are.

| | Re: Unable to remove user This does not work. I guess you didn't try this "workaround" before suggesting it. When you log into hotmail, the contact you want to delete doesn't even show up.
