FWIW:

i have 2 IM accounts on my N900: MSN (using butterfly) and the built-in skype.

i created the skype account only 2 days ago (with PR 1.1), the MSN account is older, created with PR1.0.
the MSN password is stored in plaintext in accounts.cfg, but skype's password is NOT stored there at all.

i'm gonna recreate the MSN account in the evening when i get home, maybe someone else can try sooner
