Following are the ways to solve this problem:

1)    Open file /usr/share/pyshared/papyon/service/description/AB/__init__.py .Change line 23from   

url = "http://contacts.msn.com/abservice/abservice.asmx"  to  this url = "http://contacts.msn.com/abservice/abservice.asmx"  or  url = "https://local-sn.contacts.msn.com/abservice/abservice.asmx" . Reboot  and check.

 

2)    Remove your MSN account and add it again.

3)     Disabled the account, wait for a few seconds and then re-enabled the account.

4)    Open the terminal .Enter the below command

               sudo apt-get install msn-pecan

After it finishes installing, choose MSN-pecan for your email instead of MSN messenger and it will work.
