<title>Combine and separate contacts</title>
<p>
If one, or more, of your contacts has multiple accounts with different
messaging services, you can combine these contacts into a single one.
</p>
<p>
The resulting contact is called a <em>meta-contact</em>: a contact composed
from different single contacts.
</p>
<p>
If you have a Jane Smith contact that is using three different messaging
services like:
</p>
<list>
<item>
<p>
janes@facebook
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
jane.smith@gmail
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
jane_smith@hotmail
</p>
</item>
</list>
<p>
You can combine these contacts into a single Jane Smith one.

From the <gui>Contact List</gui> window, right-click one of the contact
that has different accounts, and select
<gui style="menuitem">Link Contacts...</gui>.
</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>
From the left pane in the <gui>Link Contacts</gui> window,

</p>
</item>

When a meta-contact has been created, the default contact that will be used
to have a conversation with when you double-click on it, is the contact with
the highest presence on-line.
