I am new to Exchange. I like to create contacts by right-clicking an email
address on an incoming message. I can only save this new contact to the
user's personal contacts folder. Is there a convenient way to create it in a
public or shared folder?

Thanks.

With the email closed in the Inbox, drag it to the destination Public
Contact folder - this will make the sender a Contact in the Folder. It
doesn't work for all the other people in the To... field or CC field
though - that's where right clicking works but puts them in the default
folder.

Thanks, Judy! I am happy to have a convenient solution.
This procedure places the email address in the business (mailing) address
box instead of the email field. It seems to work for address book purposes,
so it works for me, but I'm wondering why that is?

could you explain more clearly the result you get?

What it should do is pace the email address in the email field. Then you
edit the rest of the data. You can cut/paste from their signature block as
well as the email text goes into the Notes field.
