Changing encoding to
<encoding>utf-8</encoding>
doesn't help

Try latest version from http://code.google.com/p/pyicqt/downloads/list
<encoding /> tag in config file only for one-byte encoding, keep windows-1251 
there.
utf-8 uses where it's possible but part of ICQ clients isn't supports it.

Yes, I tested it on few contacts, and it's work. I didn't found changes in svn, 
so
it's a temporary release?
