As a follow up...
If you are like many having multiple email addresses(pop3 or http) in WLM and/or other email clients of your choice in use, then:
- Do consider using WLM's option to backup your contacts locally by exporting and saving as a csv file.
- Note: Hotmail's web interface also provides the same option for exporting to a csv file.
In the event that you decide to create another Live ID, pop3 account, or change isp providers and retain some sense of separation
between(amongst) accounts or need a prior contact list the csv file can be imported to save effort on manual reentry in WLM and
most other stand-alone email clients(e.g. Outlook, etc)
