MS Office XP - Outlook Address Book

Dec 17, 2003 3:18AM PST

I posted this message a few days ago on the MS Office site but got no response - maybe someone on this very alive forum can help me.
Using Office XP. What I would like is for Outlook to automatically add the address of mail that I send, to my address book. I seem to recall such an option being available in Office 2000 but cannot locate it in Office XP. Any advice?

You can add this feature to emails you REPLY (Tools, Options, Send) to, but I don't think it can be done when creating a new email. You have to tell OE to add it.

Ron,

With Outlook you can add an email to your contacts list by simply right-click the email address and select add to contacts.

There is no auto-add feature for this.
