Importing contacts to Mail app using .csv file

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that there are duplicate contacts showing up in the Windows 10 Mail app. The Mail app uses the People’s app to store the contact information. You can try typing the email address and when you see the suggestions popped-up you, use the
arrow key to move the cursor to the email address that you want to delete and tap the Delete and check if the email address is deleted.



As you want to import contacts to Windows 10 Mail app, you have to import the contacts to the People’s app and all the contacts will be imported to the Mail app.



Currently, the option to import a .csv file to the Mail app is not available, you can import the contacts to the People’s app. Please refer the suggestions provided by

However, to import a .csv file to the Mail app seems to be a valid suggestion, I would encourage you to provide your valuable feedback in Feedback hub so that our development team can review your suggestions. To provide your feedback, please refer
to the article Send feedback to Microsoft
with the Feedback Hub app.



Hope it helps.



Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.

Trouble importing csv file to Live Mail


I have tried to import a csv & a vcf file into Live Mail. I get a message that the vcf file isn't correct & I get only the A's & B's imported with the csv file. All of the contacts are in Excel when I open it. I have a little over 200 contacts. Anyone know what I can do?
