How can I add a contact to my list of contacts with Windows Live Mail

I have a list of contacts.  To send a message, I click on the arrow to and list comes up.  I'm not able to add to this list.   If I search for a contact, a new will be on this list, but not the one to use for e-mail messages.

Can't seen to find anything in the help section, can someone help me?  Thank you

Switch to the contacts window by clicking the address book at the foot of the pane or by pressing Ctrl-3 records. The commands you need to add and edit the contacts are both on the Ribbon or on the context menu.

  • How can I organize my contacts in Windows Live Mail

    I am moving from XP Outlook Express for Windows 7 Windows Live Mail and I don't see any way to organize my contacts in different folders as I in OE. I have folders for different 'classes' of contacts - friends, parents, co-workers, etc. etc. When I send an email it almost always goes to a subset of one of these classes if I click on 'to', then select the analysis file it and drag the appropriate contacts "for", "cc" or "BCC". I need to see them all remind me which ones I want to sent to-I don't always have names at hand.

    It seems that with WLM I have to browse ALL my contacts of 200 or more for every email! As you can imagine, this makes it practically unusable WLM. I know that I can create groups, but it is to send a message to ALL members of a group. I rarely do.

    Please let me know if I'm wrong about this. If it's really as I've described, it appears as a problem and is being developed and there will be a solution in the coming months? If this isn't the case, I'll have to search for an another e-mail client.

    Start by creating a category in contacts in Windows Live Mail:

    1. Press CTRL + SHIFT + C to open the Contacts .
    2. Click the arrow next to new , and then select the category .
    3. Select the contacts for this category, and click Save .

    When you want to send a message:

    1. Opening of the Contacts .
    2. Click on the category.
    3. Hold down the CTRL key and click on who should receive the message.
    4. Right click on one of them, and then click Send Email .

  • How can I remove duplicate contacts in Windows Live Mail?

    condense windows live contacts

    Because my browser can't stand Windows Mail, I moved to Windows Live Mail. My Contacts file will of 357 entries entered in 1167. It seems that the individual entries somehow obtained a copy of 3-4 times. Y at - it a simple way for me to condense my file of contacts down to original handwriting. Also when I go to send emails, the AutoComplete feature does not work. Even when I am in Internet Explorer 9 and surf the web, the auto complete feature for addresses of Web sites that should be in my contacts folder will not work.

  • How can I remove all contacts from Windows Live Mail.

    Some time ago, I imported all my contacts from Outlook.

    All the imported addresses are duplicated. I want to erase the package effectively and start over.

    Simply select/highlight the first contact - then hold down the SHIFT key, and scroll down the list, and then click the last contact. This should highlight all contacts - then simply press DELETE :)
