If you have Automatically put people I reply to in my Address Book checked,
either uncheck it, or do not click Reply All. Reply All will put all
addresses in the AB, but if you just click Reply, only the sender will be
added.

THANK YOU so very much for responding! I'm at my wits end. Yes, I do
know
how to add folks to the Address Book, and delete them individually.

The problem is that if I can a joke or funny thing from someone and s/he
sends it to 30 other people, those 30 unknown people end up in my address
book and I want them to not be automatically added -- I want them to go
away,
and don't know how to change the settings to fix this.

Thanks for your reply. Do you think this is do-able?

You can't. If the addresses are in a message you received, go to Tools |
Options | Send and check: Automatically put people I reply to in my
Address
Book. Click Reply and then close without sending and the addresses will
be
added.
