Kopete: unable to create messenger account

[Mauro Darida <robertnospam@nonsense.com>]

hello,
I tried to create a msn messenger account inside kopete kde 3.5 etch, but 
after inserting the passport id and the password and clicking "next" I 
receive the following message:
MSN plugin-kopete
You must enter a valid email address

My question is: where?
I cannot find a place to insert an email address in the configuration tabs of 
window of the account creation process.
