Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a new Yahoo account in Instantbird
2. Use another Yahoo account, add the account created in (1) to your friend list

There should be an authorization request that allows you to let others add your account.

I've had a second report of this on IRC so I'm confirming this.

This is also true with MSN & XMPP (at least on GTalk)...

On the behalf of Florian:
Closing bugs related to the Instantbird UI as WONTFIX, as the development of the standalone chat client Instantbird has stopped. Instantbird users are encouraged to migrate to Thunderbird. The user interface of instant messaging in Thunderbird will feel familiar, as the Thunderbird IM support started as a fork of Instantbird.
