Hi Paul,
I think a lot of us know you can add a sender's name to the Address Book 
(this is on your Tools menu, by the way, the second item or so down from the 
beginning of the options list there).  The thing we've been discussing is 
just how to take the sender's address from the email right there and use it 
for one email, not clutter up your Address Book with addresses of everyone 
you ever felt like sending one message to, which isn't to everyone's taste.

The methods of just copying the address from the email itself after you've 
started the reply is awfully easy to do.  I do it all the time.  You might 
appreciate this alternative if you were to try it a couple of times yourself 
and become comfortable with the method.  Just another tool in your kit.

Daniel

Well, what I do is:

1.  escape out of the message.
2.  hit the windows applications key and then when the context menu comes
up,
3.  arrow up until I hear Jaws say "add sender's address to address book".
4.  press the enter key and I'm done.

Then I tab over to my address list and hit the first letter of the new
contact until I hear Jaws say the contact name.

HTH,
Paul
