 From the man page:

The special server address ’#’ means, "use the  standard  servers",  so 
  --server=/google.com/1.2.3.4
--server=/www.google.com/#  will  send  queries  for  *.google.com to 
1.2.3.4, except *www.google.com
which will be forwarded as usual.

so do something like

server=/contacts.msn.com/#
address=/msn.com/127.0.0.1
