  • version changed from 1.4b7 to 1.4b13

I think it's expected behaviour...

hm? hope not. i could understand that if the usernames are stored on the server. but most of the users i have are also in my addressbook so at least there ICQ numbers should be translated to real names.

That seems reasonable.

Usernames are indeed server-side.

hm?! server side?!

sorry but what is "preferences" -> "advanced" -> "address book" -> "import my contacts names from address book" good for?! there you have all the necessary information, no need to check a server. at least not for the names listed in the local address book.
