    Contact list for Windows 10 mail


    I have just upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10. I was using Windows Live Mail with my Windows 7 system but I want to use Windows 10 Mail from now on. I have created an email account under Windows 10 Mail which works. It is an IMAP account. However this account does not yet recognize the contact list I transferred from my Windows 7 system (nor does it seem to store any email addresses for people I have sent or received messages from under the new account). I understand that the People App includes contact information use by Windows 10 Mail. When I go to the People App to import the contact information from my Windows 7 system, the People App asks me to create a new account, even though the account has already been created under Windows Mail and is recognized in my account list under Settings: i.e., it does not recognized my IMAP email account.

    Please tell me how I can import my contact list to the People App for my existing IMAP Mail account.

    Thank you.

    :)

    Deleting contacts from Windows 10


    When you say Windows Mail Live are you referring to Mail app or Windows Live Mail?

    I suggest you to try the steps provided below and check if it helps.


    • Open Windows Live Mail.
    • Press Ctrl + 3 using your keyboard. Right-click on the contact to delete it if it is a single contact.
    • Highlight all contacts by pressing Ctrl + A.
    • Click Delete located on the Ribbon bar.
    • Click OK when you see the message These contacts will also be deleted from Hotmail, Messenger, and other Windows Live services.

    After following the steps above, all your contacts that you have manually added to your account will be deleted however, contacts coming from third-party sites such as Facebook will not be deleted unless you remove Facebook from your account.

    For Mail app:

    Open People app then delete the contact.

    Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
