The directive relates primarily to emails (other data as well, but I'm trying to keep it simple)

The directive hasn't been fully implemented here yet, but will be at some point.

The time of receipt etc., is meant to be retained, but the actual contents of the mail aren't ... so the subject line for example would be outside the scope of the directive..

US law is much worse on many levels, as they can seize servers etc., without warning under the Patriot act and other laws..

What about MSN? Is the content of conversations kept?

You'd have to read the directive, but I don't think the content would be affected, though the logins probably would be

Before I go on, I'm not a solicitor and don't fully know Irish and American law on this issue.

With MSN, everything you type goes through MSN's servers in the US. It's not Irish laws you need to be worried about there, but American laws. I don't see anything in their Terms And Conditions about logging though.
