You can import as either .wab or sepperated comma values. If you have outlook
express installed and you’re upgrading on the same system, windows live mail
should be able to import your email accounts and settings automatically.
However, I’m not sure how or if this is possible if you’re wanting to transfer
your accounts on to a new or reformated computer.

I am following this thread as I will now import my Contacts into Windows Live
Mail. One question, what format must my address book be in? Can it be in the
format from Outlook Express or must I have the text and comma seperator?
Finally is there a way of importing e-mail accounts or do these have to be done
as new?

Hi David.
Thanks very much for your help. I have now successfully imported my
addressbook and created signitures. I had no idea that there were shortcuts
like control + 1 or 3, very very useful!

Hi Vanja,
Importing an address book. As you found out from google, there are some
buttons in the bottom left of the window for changing the main view of the
window to mail, contacts, etc. The easiest way of pressing these buttons is to
use their shortcuts: mail is ctrl+1, and contacts is ctrl+3.
Once you've moved to the contacts view, then as Iain has said, import is
available in the tools menu/group of the ribbon.
Creating a signature. You can do this on signatures tab of the options
dialog. You can open this by opening the file menu, opening the options sub
menu, and then choosing mail. Alternatively you can open the dialog using the
shortcut ctrl+shift+o.
David.

Hello,
is there a way to import addressbook in to windows live mail with jaws or any
screenreader? There does not seem to be a way of accessing it the addressbook
through the ribbon menu. From what I googled people say to click at the left
bottom where you should be able to see addressbook, but jaws or any other
screenreader I tried does nhot seem to be able to see that.
P.S
While we’re on the subject of windows live mail, I did ask the other day if
there is a way to create a signature and did not receive any replies,
probably
because no one is sure, but in case someone does know and have missed it,
that’s another question.
Sorry for merging 2 somewhat different subject, but people can feel free to
reply off list to any of those questions.
