  2. If you have Msn 7.5 you can download an extra called Stuff plug which increases it to something like 5000+.

  3. when the message history limit is reached on MSN it gives the option of deleting older messages. i deleted those for one of my conversations by accident (i didn’t archive them). is there a location from which these deleted conversations can be retrieved?
