Adding contact to distribution list

If I have a contact open (i.e. I'm editing a contact) - in the bottom right
hand corner there's a button where I can add this contact to a Category. Is
there a similar way to add this contact to a distribution list at the same
time and from this dialog window?

Thanks
 
Okay - so perhaps the solution to this is to use rules and VBA script:

I've set up a rule so that when a certain subject is received then a message
pops up and that email is copied to a certain folder - simple enough and no
mystery how to do that.

Now I'd like to add a bit of VBA code such that when that rule is
encountered the sender's email address is:
1. Added to the Contacts list
2. Put in a certain category
3. Added to a Distribution List

Where should I look for the solution for this?

Thanks
