Does anybody know of anyway to add addresses to your address book from text i.e. if somebody sends an email to you with a load of email addresses in a list, rather than cut and paste them.

Use CSV import but turn the text file you have into a csv first. It should do field mapping on the import but if it doesn't just export your own contacts first then match the format you get out of it with the new file

Thanks for that, for some strange reason I couldn't spot anything like that when I looked.

off topic: Odd thing about email messages is that you can drag and drop them (try it to the desktop)
