HOW DO I TRANSFER NA EMAIL TO MY NOTEPAD?

How can I transfer my email CONTACT LIST to my wife's email account?

• Both my wife and I have yahoo email addresses: Mine is <adam.atkin @ yahoo.com>, and hers is <[email protected]>. Last week her email account was "HACKED"--some hackers hacked (stole) HER WHOLE CONTACT-LIST and also removed somehow the whole preceding 2 or 3 weeks of her email from her Yahoo account. So now we don't know how she can get any of that back. But since I had many of the same contacts in my contact list, one help I could do if it were possible would be to "export" my contact list to her email account--or in some other way get my stored email addresses to her. But when I put questions to Yahoo "HELP" it only tells me about IMPORTING email addresses, not about EXPORTING them! So what can I do? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

  IMPORTANT! Please open and edit this question to remove your two addresses (by clicking the pencil Edit icon) Posting real addresses anywhere on the web open them to spammers and hackers, who have programs just to surf the web for addresses to attack.
