Firstly, to reset your MSN Messenger contact list to display by display name, do as ladie_vennom said:
1) Open MSN Messenger.
2) Go to your contact list, if you are not already there
3) Click Contacts on the menu bar (where File View etc.. are)
4) Then click on Manage Contacts
5) then View Contacts by
6) and lasty, click on Display Name
This will restore your MSN Messenger contact list to sort and display by display name.
Secondly, the reason your list was made to display by email is because Messenger Plus! enabled "Custom Contact Names" -- one of it's features, which REQUIRES your contact list to be sorted by email address, rather than display name, to function.

GENIUS!!!!
Thank you... Somehow, when i downloaded IMTiger, I had the same buddy on my list 3 times... once from AIM, once from ICQ and once from MSN...
I must have changed his name, enabling MSN Plus' custom name feature...
When i uninstalled IMTiger, and tried to sort by display name, it would work only until i minimized the screen... then it returned to e-mail addresses.
Thank you for identifying this issue... for a while there I thought I would need to reformat (I had already reinstalled MSN and MSN plus like 3 times).
