When in the People App, open up the Charm bar, go to Settings, Add an Account and then those Accounts will be synchronised to People and the contacts automatically added.

Windows Live Mail is merely a client service wich collects the data from your various email accounts such as Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo etc. The contact list you see in Live Mail is collected and synchronised from your various email accounts.

So when you are in the Charm bar settings for People and you add an account you need to add Hotmail, Gmail etc and that will put your email contacts into People.
