When reciving our buddy list on MSN, add people to the permit and deny lists before adding them to the buddylist. This fixes a bug when our privacy setting is "allow only the people below." There would be a very brief period of time when the buddy list thought that the person you just added to your buddy list was blocked. This didn't seem to matter in Pidgin, but it could matter in other UIs. *ahem*

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the HOWTOs in the
"Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
