Sharing pop accounts and contacts

[Guest]

I am using outlook2003 at home and I have an email account going through a pop server. I want to be able to click a folder , specifically Inbox and have the ability to dump incoming email addresses to my contact folder. When I right click the inbox and select the properties->admin tab, it is greyed out on ' Add folder address to contact'.

I am presuming thats how I get to force all incoming addresses to automatically be added to my contact folder/list. Since it is greyed out , how do I accomplish this? I know its says that for pop accounts I have to contact my ISP for some account details. But it does not tell me what exactly I should ask them for?

It's very generic and incomplete in what pop account users should ask or have done, to be able to set permissions as owners or even be bestowed as an admin. Please advise as I have close to 100 email accounts & I would hate to click on each email - so as to be added to my contacts.

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.

The "add folder address" setting has nothing to do with this task. It adds
the email address of an Exchange Server public folder to Contacts.

Sue,
Thanks a ton. I use 2003 and I see it has options for Outlook 2002 at best(latest). You suppose 2002 fix would work for 2003?

What fix for what? Your latest message omits all reference to the original
problem: The newsgroup interface you are using apparently does not quote
earlier messages in the thread, making your latest message so short on
detail that you risk not getting the answer you're looking for. Please take
the time to quote the original message.
