May i ask what is the exact version number help - about messenger
Then it will show the version numbers
Sometimes at the bottom of the contact page there are sometimes hotmail contacts, sometimes the contacts you add, mysteriously add as a hotmail contact..

hmm..Im sorry, i can't find it.. have you tried signing in on a A web messenger and seeing if the contacts appear there?
It might work, if not, add the contact whilst on web messenger. It should work then.

Have you tried repairing Windows live messenger.
Also im a bit confused, you say they appear on the contact list but as email@domain.com and when they speak to you there is a yellow infomation bar saying "the contact is not on your list ""click here to add him/her to your list"" "
