I think it's possible to write a plugin that collects the from addresses
(and/or other header data) from selected mails in the message list, and
then mass mail, store them in the address book or anything else, but I'm
not sure how it will affect the performance. Depending on your system
setup, such a plugin could be very slow when doing the header harvesting.

The problem now is to find someone who's willing to code it. I should
finish some other stuff before starting new projects. I think it's a good
idea though, and that it's possible to do it as a SquirrelMail plugin.

Sincerely,
Fredrik.
