importing addresses into contact

I have an email that has a large cc: list. I would like to save that list
either as individual contacts or as a minimum a distribution list.

I can 'copy' the list and 'paste' it to a word document.

How can I create a distribution contact with all of them or individual
contact for all of them?

Thanks JWB
 
Ok, point well taken. I would actually prefer to import the list into
seperate contacts, but short of typing them all, how can I do that.

Again, the list of addresses is coming from the header of an email that was
sent to me.

There must be a way...

Thanks, JWB

That depends on the format of these addresses. If they can be recognized and
resolved, you can use the method here:

Bear in mind that you will create a DL which has no connection to Contacts
in your Contacts folder and such DL's are notoriously fragile and
unreliable.

Not natively there isn't, especially if this is simply a list of addresses
with no names. What you want requires a third party add-in.
