An icon in my WLM contact list by Mike on 04-06-2006 at 02:41 PM

Many of my contacts on the bottom of my contact list have this icon: [Image: wlmcontactlisticon.PNG]

Does that icon mean that that contact has deleted me from his/her list, and I still have him/her in my list?

No, i think those are non-Net.Passport contacts, but don't trust this 100%, wait for someone to confirm :P

But I used to talk to some of them...

I was wondering, because my contact list is almost full (I have ... 451 contacts...!!!), WLM takes alot of time to signin, and I also have way too many contacts of this type...

The tooltip for these contacts is just the text displayed near that icon (their "name"?)
No email is displayed.

Those are contacts that are only in your adressbook in hotmail (quick way of e-mailing your contact without having to start your browser etc. first..it is all done for you when you doubleclick that contact) so "non instant messaging contacts".

If they disturb you, you can either group them together (contacts > sort contacts by) or you can choose not to display them in WLM at all (contacts > filter contacts).
