it doesn't make you add them to contacts but if the address is not formatted
correctly, it will come up and one of the options is to create a contact.
Apparently you are creating the contact and it has the correctly formatted
address in it.

When I try sending an outgoing email to a list, the name checker won't
allow
it without manually adding every name to the contacts file. I have tried
