Introduction


If you wish to retrieve and use the list of your Outlook or Hotmail contacts from your Outlook / Hotmail / Live / MSN mailbox, without any contact, this is possible.

To move contacts from your Outlook.com account (formerly known as Hotmail, Live, and MSN) to another account, it is possible to export them to a CSV file. You can then import the file into your Permanent Contact account.

Recommended for you: Set up canned responses in Gmail

The contact recovery operation is done in two steps: first export the contacts from the first Outlook account and then import them into the new mailbox.

Here's how to transfer contacts from an Outlook account

Step 1 Save Contacts from an Outlook / Hotmail / Live / MSN Account

1. On the left pane of the old Outlook mail account, click Contacts.

2. A contact import wizard proposes to find your addresses from Facebook, Twitter, Google (Gmail), Linkedin, but not Outlook. Choose the "Import from a file" option.

3. Check the "Microsoft Outlook (with CSV)" service, then load the previously saved CSV file and confirm with "Import contacts".

4. The import will take a few seconds, then a message confirms the success of the operation will be displayed by the end of the import.

5. Old contacts are now existing in the new Outlook or Hotmail box.

Congrats! you can now transfer contacts from one Outlook - Hotmail account to another account.
