Problem with MSN Messenger-Contact Addition

Hello,

4 or 5 days ago I erased my msn account, but it said I shouldn't have logged in for a long time in order for the account to be erased, however, some people that I met yesterday asked me for my MSN. I gave them the address that I ''deactivated'' however not logged into for only about 5 days. Yesterday I signed into the account on my msn again to see if they have added me yet, the account worked, everything was in place, however I've seen no invitation from them. My question is; Could they have added me on MSN Messenger during the short time that I haven't logged into my account, despite MSN saying that for the account to be fully deleted I shouldn't have logged in for about 300 days?
