You can set the target Address Book in the Contact Editor before filing
the Contact.

Depending on where you want to add a new Contact from (Contacts or Mail
component), the steps necessary differ -- but it's always the same, once
you got to the Contact Editor.

Contacts / New
 Contact tab / Where = <select target Address Book>

Mail / <address> Right Click / Add to Address Book
 Add Contacts / Edit Full
 Contact tab / Where = <select target Address Book>


At least you don't need to move the just created Contact this way. HTH

I don't know of any way to set a default Address Boo for new Contacts.
