Easy way to add contacts to address book?

[Steve]

With outlook 98 there was a setting to add addresses
automatically when I reply to them. If that's not
possible with 2000/XP is there an easier way to add a
contact than opening the address book, clicking new then
manually typing in the information. Isn't there a way to
click something and have it auto populate the email field?

Thanks in advance

Steve

See http://www.slipstick.com/contacts/addauto.htm for various ways to save senders or recipients as new contacts automatically, depending on your version and configuration of Outlook.

Its not automatic, but an easy way to do it is after you hit reply, right click the address that is now in the To and it will give you the option to "Add to Contacts". You can also do the same thing by right clicking the address in the recieved email.
