Re: Birthday calendar not getting updated automatically

No. I did not add the birthdays using live.calendar.com.
I only updated my contacts information in WLMail to add birthdays.

The contacts information has got synced with the online contacts list, as I
see the updates I had done to my contacts. However, the birthday information
is not automatically added to the calendar from the contacts.

Isn't WLMail calendar supposed to automatically add these birthdays to the
calendar? If not, isn't it the desired feature. I'd not like to manage
birthdays at multiple locations.
