An address of the form "user%hotmail.com at msn.mydomain.com" is a valid 
JabberID; it is not intended to be viewed as an email address.  The 
problem here seems to be a lack of complete vCard support in the msn 
transport.  Or at least that's what it looks like in the xml, becuase 
when my client (gabber, fwiw) sends a request for vCard info to an msn 
JID, I get an error code 405 "Not Allowed" from the jabber server, and I 
have no observed problem getting vCard info like email address, name, 
etc from other jabber users.  (I'm using msn-t from a recent cvs 
checkout, but that might not matter because I don't think msn-t has been 
worked on in a while...msn-t developer(s), please correct me if I'm wrong.)

Nope; I've only done a couple of quick greps through the source, but it 
seems pretty clear that this is a feature that has not yet been implemented.
Patches are always welcome, of course.  ;)
