Using the Address Book

The address book remembers the e-mail addresses of all your correspondents. You list people by nicknames, which can be shortened version of the person's name, such as their first name. When you send an e-mail to someone in your address book, all you have to do is type the nickname. Here's how to add someone to the address book:

1. Click Address Book on the toolbar
2. Click New at the bottom of the dialog box. (On the Mac, this button isn't labeled. It's just above the To button.)
3. Type the nickname. It can be a recipient's first name, or just enough to uniquely identify the person. Click OK.
4. The name appears on the left pane.
5. On the right pane, type the person's full e-mail address. (You can also include other information. On the Mac, you should also include the person's full name.)
6. Click the Close button and click Yes/Save to save the address entry.

To send a message to someone in your address book:

1. Start a new message.
2. Click Address Book to open the address book.
3. Select the person's nickname.
4. Click the To button at the bottom of the address book. (You can also click CC or Bcc.)
5. You can choose as many people as you want to send mail to several people from the address book.

You can also start without first opening a message. When you click To, Eudora Light automatically creates a new message for you.
