You can use Windows Live
Contacts to store the names and e-mail addresses of people with whom you
frequently correspond. You do that by creating a new contact, which is
an item called a card that stores data about a person or company.
Each card can store a
wide variety of information. For example, you can store a person's name,
company name, phone numbers, e-mail address and instant messaging data,
street address, notes, and much more.
When you choose a name
from Windows Live Contacts while composing a message, Windows Live Mail
automatically adds the contact's e-mail address. This is faster and more
accurate than typing the address by hand.
