Thanks for the tip. That works if and only if I chose to reply to that
sender. I was looking for a way to add the sender for a received email -
much like OutlookExpress does!

But, working with your tip - I found a way to do it. I hit reply and then do
as you suggested. Then I simply cancel the reply!

Regards and thanks again.

What version of Outlook? Milly's suggestion certainly works in Outlook 2003
without having to hit "Reply".......

As already mentioned - Outlook 2003.

I cannot see a "To" field on any received email anywhere. Am I missing
something?

Regards and thanks for the response.

Not sure but I think /I/ might be missing something! - the "To" field has
YOUR address in it. the FROM field is what you use to add to Contacts. Open
the email and right-click on the FROM line.

Okay - NOW I get it!

I can see that the right-click on the sender's address does have the option
to add to the Contact's list. After the email is opened!

Earlier I could not see this option because I did not know it comes up when
an email is *opened*!!! I read most email in the preview pane itself and
this option is not available there! Come to think of it, I have always done
that since Office 97 days!

Thanks for the clarification! Till now your's and Milly's suggestions seemed
to be pretty much different things altogether!

All well that ends well.

Regards and thanks again.

That only puts the name in your autocomplete cache, not the Contact folder,
but, whatever works for you.
