I want a new yahoo im username, but want to retain my contact list from the old yahoo profile. Is there a way to backup the yahoo contact list and then import it into my new yahoo identity profile? Thanks.

Thanks.I used the Buddy Dubby before, it will import my friends list from a previous and add those in my new ID. I just dont know if that still works or have been patched.:confused:

Most the copy programs I have used don’t work. Some do, but I get too many auto denies.
