With versions 3.0, 3.0b, and 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows, a shortcut
exists for entering a new gateway address with a friendly name into a personal
address book (PAB).

------------------------------------------------------------

  verify that the Add Recipients To Personal Address Book option is checked.

  following on the "To" line:

  Paul[SMTP:paul@company.com]

4. Finish composing the message and click the Send button.

5. The new address will be added to your PAB as soon as the message has left the
  Outbox. The friendly name will appear in your PAB.
