How do I copy a long list of e-mail addresses and add them to a group name in my contact list? I use Live Mail
Original title: contact list
I do not receive e-mails from anyone who is not on my contact list. For instance, if I ordered something from LLBean and they wanted to send a confirmation to me, unless I had the exact e-mail address they were sending from in my contact list, I would not receive it. It doesn't go into may spam or junk mail either...I want junk mail that I can filter and go through and deete when I want.....
Please help
We are able to send and receive emails on Windows Live Mail, but when trying to edit names within a category we see that we are "working offline"
and can't make changes.
I inherited from a previous employee a contact list of customers so that when we need to send an email to a customer we can type in that customers number and the "To" field will populate with their company name or email address. For instance, we will see either 1424 - AnyCompany or 1424 - Mary Smith (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***). However, when I go to my address book I can not find this contact list. So when a customer wants to change the name of the contact, I have to keep a list on paper because I've tried clicking on the contact name in the email and changing it, but then I lose the ability to populate the "To" field by the customer number going forward. Also, if the customer responds to me after I've sent the email, I lose the ability to send future emails using the customer number. As though that has been overridden. I've also tried adding new contacts by making business cards, but when I go to send an email to them and I start to type in their customer number, nothing comes up. Since we have over 150 customers and some have 2 or 3 contacts, I can not remember everyone's name.
Unfortunately, we do not know where the contact list is "housed" and how to go about adding or changing it in Outlook. Its not part of the Global Address Book or the Outlook Address Book. If you can shed some light on where it is and how to change it, that would be appreciated as it will make my job much easier.
Thank you,

I have a friend who had to move to Win8 due to his PC burning out. He successfully moved all his data from the old drive to the new system including his Windows Live Mail and including his contacts and all was well for a couple of months. Now all of a sudden he has lost his Contacts - the whole thing is blank. Unfortunately he cannot pinpoint exactly when the loss may have been incurred but equally he cannot recollect any particular problem with his email setup that could possibly have been related to the loss.
He is running Win8 and Windows Live Mail Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3508.0205) so its pretty up to date. He does not have a hotmail.com or similar Microsoft email address, but a Yahoo one and another local ISP supplied web mail one. Both of these are included in the Windows Live Mail list of accounts and are synched with all the time. We believe the Contact list (including Groups) was stored on the local machine however despite being able to find lots of contacts.edb files we have so far been unable to determine which one might be the 'lost' one.
Given the above configuration can anyone point us at where we should look to find what we think must have been a locally stored contacts file, so that hopefully we can somehow point WLM to it again?

Can one purchase space (e.g. Skydrive) to increase the tiny outlook.com 500 kb contact list quota? I have close to 3000 contacts elaborated with notes and keywords. I'm trying to migrate from my desktop set-up to outlook.com but the space constraints are making outlook.com cloud solution seem impractical. iCloud has the space but the interface doesn't work well with Outlook. What are we loyal Outlook users to do?
