List of contacts

Hi,
I have 2 accounts, one is hotmail and the other is with my domain at office
live. I imported both to the WLM. The thing is when I try to send e-mail, I
cant see the list of contacts from my domain, I only see the one from
hotmail. But both are thru microsoft .. I dont undestand why i cant retrieve
both to WLM.
Also, do you know if i can send more than the limit of emails thru hotmail
per day?? even if I pay? or I have to get a third party?! It's not for
business, but i have a lot of friends that I would like to send nice emails
but I'm limited becouse I can only send 200 or 250 per day.
Thanks for you help if you can!

Re: List of contacts

Using the beta version ?
Did you import you contacts via a previously saved csv file and also without signing in to WLM.

WLM uses the signed on Live ID contacts(ie.. the Hotmail, Live, or msn.com account contacts).

If you wish to use the Default contacts, stop signing in when WLM opens
-tools/options/connection/stop signing in
If contacts are not present, import them from a csv file or enter them manually.

Note: If you are using the beta, some issues remain with the default contacts/importing/fields etc in WLM beta(version 14 suffix
0908) thus it might be best to remove the beta and install the production version(get.live.com)

You send 250 nice emails to friends every day ? Whatever you used before Hotmail might be your best choice, unless your isp limited
that amount. Contact them or Hotmail support for further info.

Re: List of contacts

Hi Winston,
Thank you for your answer.

My is VERSION 2008 (Build 12.0.1606)

I didnt save any download .csv file. I just created the profile and imported
everything automatically. But I only get one list of contacts, which is my
hotmail account, the one with my domain name doesnt show, even thus I pay to
microsoft to have my domain with them.
I have a limit on how many people I send my e-mails. I only can send 2
emails per day to my 105 contact list. which I think stops around 250 per
day. I would like to send maybe 10 emails per day to everyone.
Thank you again!!
Cyro

Re: List of contacts

If you logon to WLM with a Live ID Hotmail name/pw you will always see the Contacts from that account regardless of how many
accounts are in use in WLM.

If you wish to use a different set of contacts, you will have to import those contacts.

You can't increase the allowable limit. Use another service that does not have a limit.

Re: List of contacts

Hi Winston
Here is how it's doing:
I have 3 emails on my WLM.
HOTMAIL
MY NAME DOMAIN
GMAIL

I click on gmail, and try to open contacts, it says on the top left of the
windows: ****@hotmail.com.
It doesnt matter which e-mail root I have selected, my contact icon in the
bottom only opens up the hotmail account.
About my other questions, if I have a company, or I want to have my personal
e-mail and I want to send 1000 emails a day I cant? Microsoft doesnt allow me
to do that? even if I pay?! It doesnt make sense. So, I have to pay for
another e-mail provider to do that? can I use my hotmail address with the
other provider and pay them?
thank you again!
Cyro.
