   Thnks.    
   I have a couple of outlook/hotmail addresses that I only use for access to   
   W10 and have no desire to inform/confuse 1000 people that I have a new   
   address.   
   However pretty W10 Mail looks on my desktop, it's nevr going to import   
   those folders of addresses by the method from that link as 'People' app is   
   not the solution for desktop.   
   I guess I'll have to stick with Outlook 2010 and do my serious emailing   
   from the desktop with Gmail and Email from my android for one-off mails.   
   Thanks to folk who tried to help.
