How do you transfer old email contacts to your new email address?
Haven't ever tried this, but this is straight from Yahoo Help Central





good luck and M E R R Y X M A S





Here’s how:





1. Click the Contacts tab in the upper-left part of the page.


2. In the upper-right corner of the page that opens, click Options.


3. Under "Management," click Transfer Contacts to Yahoo!.


4. Please re-enter your password. We want to make sure it’s you!


5. And now, a permissions page. Legal stuff! Read at your leisure, and when you feel ready, click I Agree. Or of course, if you’d rather not continue, just click I Do Not Agree.


6. One more hurdle: please verify that you’ve read the Terms of Service. How? By clicking in the check-box. OK! Click Start Transfer.


7. Enter the “old” email sign-in name for the account you’re transferring from, and in the pull-down menu, select the webmail domain it’s from.


* Choose from:


Hotmail, AOL, Gmail, Comcast, Yahoo!, Cox, Earthlink, MSN, Netscape, Netzero, Juno, CS, Optonline, and Worldnet.att.net


8. Enter the email account’s password. Click Next.


9. Please wait a moment while we verify this information. Thanks! If we run into a problem, we’ll ask that you please re-enter the username, provider and password info.


10. Now, leave a check in the check-boxes beside the information you’d like to transfer to your Yahoo! account. You can transfer Email, Address Book info, and usually, your Calendar info. But some webmail programs don’t feature calendars.


* Would you like to send a note to all these contacts announcing your new email address? No problem! Leave a check in the box beside “Send a note…” And if you want to write the note yourself, just click “Click here to personalize...”, and click Next when you’re done.


* Click Next to transfer the information to your new Yahoo! account.


* Done! Nice work. The “Finished” page confirms the transfer and offers you a quick route back to your Yahoo! Mail account: Take Me To Yahoo! Mail.
