I have several very long email addresses that I enter
manually several times a day. Is there a way to set a
function (such as CTR-ALT-F6) to paste this at any time?

I'm looking for a general shortcut, not one limited to a
specific application. I use both Outlook and OE.

Since you don't say if you're using an Outlook,, or
Outlook Express as your e-mail client, I'll just assume
so!
Open one of them then click on "Address Book" then click
on "Help", then "Content and index" and type in the
box "adding groups to the Address Book", and learn!

Then take the addresses you have, and follow those instructions in the "Help" files. You can either add them to your address book, then take those addresses, and make them a group, name it something you like, add them (that) to your contacts, then use that group in a "new e-mail" in OE and/or Outlook, since you are more than likely using one of those anyway, it can be in your contacts list. This can be achieved with any e-mail client. When you create mail, select that group from your contacts as the recipient(s)

You still didn't specify what e-mail system you use, ie, a client, or a web based system.

If you simply want to copy-n-paste them into the "to" address bar (why I don't know, it seems more difficult that way), then open notepad, and type out the addresses, followed by a semi-colon, or a comma after each address, and save-as whatever you'd like, then copy-n-paste it to whatever "to" Cc", or "Bcc".

There are many programs around that let you type an abbreviation,
and it then supplies the full text. They typically work in all
applications. I use a feeware program called Robotype (do a
search to find it). So for example if I type "ms," it supplies
"Microsoft." It could do the same thing with names and E-mail
addresses.

You stupid ****tard! Did you bother to read the OP?
 
You can try this:
Right click on the desktop, choose new, shortcut.
In the "location of the item" space enter the address you want a
shortcut to, prefixed by mailto:
Thus- mailto:[email protected] .
Then enter a name for the shortcut.
When you click on this shortcut it will bring up a new message window
with the address already entered for you.
(You can place this shortcut anywhere convenient that you like.)
