If you're setting on the e-mail itself from the person, then command shift y it's also in the apple menu under message I believe. If you don't have an existing e-mail, try setting up a new message, and typing the e-mail in the to field, then try the command shift y If that doesn't work then do control click and see if there's a function to copy to address book. Doing command shift y will add the address into your e-mail's address panel don't know if it will actualy put it in the main address book. Think it will, but haven't actually played with the address book much since getting the new computer, have played with Tiger so long that I learned to just live without it because in Tiger the address book was a nightmare. But those are some options for you. On Jan 15, 2012, at 4:22 AM, Margaret Booth wrote:
