Step1
Access the address book from the "Tools" menu. Click on "Tools," highlight "Address Book" and click through to open the address book. The keyboard shortcut is "Ctrl+L."
Step2
Choose a category for your new entry. "Family," "Friends," "Co-workers" and customizable categories are available from Eudora Mail.
Step3
Command the system to create a new entry by clicking on "New," or by right-clicking and selecting "New" from the menu that will appear. Choose "New Book" to customize a new address book.
Step4
Enter a nickname for your contact. This isn't required, but it will prevent you from having to type out the contact's full name every time you want to send that person a new email message.
Step5
Use the address book to display a contact's name in bold type by checking the "Recipient List" box next to the contact.
Step6
Click anywhere in the address book or press "Enter" while the address book is in your active window to create the entry.
Step7
Bring up the "Personal" dialogue box by clicking on "Personal." Type the contact's full (or shortened) name in the "Full Name" field, bearing in mind that this information will be displayed to the recipient of your message.
Step8
Fill in the "First Name" and "Last Name" fields.
Step9
Enter your contact's email address in the "This nickname will expand to the following addresses" field. You can enter more than one email address if you want your messages delivered to all email accounts held by the recipient.
Step10
Save your changes by going to the "File" menu and clicking on "Save."
Step11
Use the information in the address book by typing in a contact's full name or nickname in the "To" field of a new message. The address book will then automatically fill in the email address of the person to whom you're writing.
