I use Windows Live Mail in support of my Outlook.com e-mail address.  I recently received a notification from Outlook, telling me I needed to update my WLM account, due to an imminent modification coming from Microsoft, and a link to the update was provided.  

So, I clicked on the link, and the update was quickly consummated.  However, WLM is now failing to recognize all of my incoming e-mails as either Contacts or Allowed Senders:  so every e-mail has that warning, "Unknown sender.  Delete and block?  Allow sender?"

I've double-checked on my WLM Options/Safety/Safe Senders tab, and the correct items are checked ("Also trust e-mails from my Contacts" and "Automatically add people I e-mail to the Safe Senders List").  

I've tried to figure out how to fix this highly-annoying problem, but have no clue.  It only started after I made the recent update. Does anyone have any ideas -- your help would be tremendously appreciated!  Thanks in advance.
