You don't say what type of accounts these are, but it doesn't matter
much. Make them both into Live IDs if they're not Hotmail-type
accounts (at https://signup.live.com/ ). Then the contacts you see
in WLMail are those associated with the Live ID you sign in with.
Export the contacts you now have to a CSV file, then change your
sign-in ID (click on the display name next to the mugshot in the top
right-hand corner), go to Contacts again and import from the file
you just created. Then all you have to do is delete the ones you
don't want from each list.

This is a potted version concocted in haste - if you want more
detailed instructions, post back.
