Bingo!!!
:D
I follow this:
http://oebfare.com/blog/2008/feb/23/changing-modelchoicefield-queryset/
and now I'm happy with mi desired current user based queryset
Thank you all!

BTW, my form class finally looks like...
---
class SendMessageForm(forms.Form):

        recipientUser = ShowValidContactList
(queryset=None,label=u'Send to')
        messageSubject= forms.CharField(label=u'Subject')
        messageContent = forms.CharField
(label=u'Content',widget=forms.Textarea())

        def __init__(self, inputUser, *args, **kwargs):
               self.user= inputUser
               super(SendMessageForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
               self.fields['recipientUser'].queryset = # Anything with
the current user, in this case 'self.user'
