The shortcut "Add to Address Book" is under Tools in the Menu bar for Entourage 2004. This adds the address for the sender.
To add an address in the body of the message. Double click and it opens addressed to that person. You can then Control Click to select "add to Address Book" I agree, it should be a contextual menu item. Just did a quick Google search and do see it is possible for a user to create a contextual menu item. <http://www.google.com/search?ie=utf8&oe=utf8&q=Mac+create+your+own+contextu al+menu+item> -- Diane On 6/24/09 9:37 AM, "Elvis Cruz" <[email protected]> wrote: > > > From: Elvis Cruz <[email protected]> > Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2009 12:21:59 -0400 > To: YouTalk mailing list for discussion of Microsoft Entourage > <[email protected]> > Conversation: Really simple, basic Entourage question > Subject: Really simple, basic Entourage question > > Hey all you Entourage wizards, > > I have this recurring frustration with Entourage.
