There is a proper way to do this, which would let you create your accounts through the Accounts app like with google etc. The UI is already generated from the provider xml.

Do we have a local file that's executed upon boot? Something like rc.local?
Adding the 'mc-tool enable haze/icq/...' line there ...should work because that's all what's needed after reboot to get it working again.
Does this keep happening after every restart? I found that the settings table gradually accumulated settings from telepathy. The last one I saw appear was the avatar, and now I can see that in the Availability dialog. Here's the current state of my msn settings:

Code:
13|0|enabled|b|1
13|0|name|s|me@hotmail.com
13|0|password|s|mypassword
13|0|scheduler/schedule_enabled|b|0
13|0|scheduler/schedule_off_peak|i|-1
13|0|scheduler/schedule_offpeak_enabled|b|0
13|0|scheduler/schedule_peak|i|-1
13|0|scheduler/schedule_peak_days|i|31
13|0|scheduler/schedule_peak_enabled|b|0
13|0|scheduler/schedule_peak_end_time|i|1020
13|0|scheduler/schedule_peak_start_time|i|540
13|0|username|s|me@hotmail.com
13|20|AvatarMime|s|image/png
13|20|ConnectAutomatically|s|false
13|20|Nickname|s|Me
13|20|NormalizedName|s|me@hotmail.com
13|20|avatar_token|s|a17d12953036251b0a832f88e21aadfc378bbd86
13|20|enabled|b|1
13|20|tmc-uid|s|butterfly/msn/me_40hotmail_2ecom0
Maybe you could try setting the 'enabled' boolean one if it's not there? If it works, I'll add it to the last set of insertions on the first post. I'd like to keep that as simple as possible though.
