Hi Antonio:
I'll try to explain what I do here, since I'm a long devoted Outlook express 
user changing over.  
I'll assume you have your mail open.  Typically, I interact with messages.  I 
use vo arrow to go to the "from" heading.  Open menu with vo-M and right arrow 
to messages.  Arrow down to "add sender from address book."  
This isn't the shortest way, but it's similar to what I did in OE.
