You don't have to include that someone to your contact list in order to email him/her.

You can just simply type the address into the To box.

If you do want to add that person to your contact list...............

To access your main contact list:

Open outlook.com > top left next to the logo Outlook, there is a down arrow > click the arrow > click People > All your contacts are now listed on the left. Scroll down to see each contact.

How to add a new contact to your Contact List :

at the same People window , toolbar at top, click New > fill in the required info > click Save when done > the new contact is now included in your contact list.

    Log into http://people.live.com/ or when logged into http://outlook.live.com/, click the tile icon at the left end of the menu bar and choose "People"

    Is there an easy way to find my address book / contact list?  The current solution does not appear to be intuitive.

    > I WENT TO PEOPL  AND GOT A LIST OF EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER SENT ME MAIL.

    Simply not true. The People tile shows you only those people you've deliberately added.
