Re: How to change default of "Add to Address Book" command

The way to do it is to change the Default Mail Account, in
Tools/Accounts/Mail, to your Exchange account (select it and click "Make
Default"). Then contacts should be added to your Exchange address book. I
think you must have a POP or IMAP account select as your default mail
account?
Which means that when you click New for a new email message it comes from
this POP or IMAP account. If that's in fact what you want, there's no way
around this aside from either constantly switching the default mail account
back and forth, or else opening one of the address books into its own window
- via File/Open New Main Window, or else double-clicking one of the address
books after setting Preferences/General/Double-clicking folders opens...)
and then dragging the contact from one address to the other and optionally
deleting it from the first one.

Subject: Re: How to change default of "Add to Address Book" command
Julia, did you find a solution to this? I have the same problem. I have
two address books, one is the one that syncs with my exchange server
(contacts [name of the server]) and the other one only on the laptop
(address book [on my computer]) and obviously i would like that all
addresses I add on the laptop make it to the server.

I searched the archives of the group on Google, but could not find an
answer to this specific question. I am using Entourage 2004, and I have
both POP and Exchange accounts. The Exchange account is the default
account, and as such when I click the Address Book icon, that is the
address list that is shown.
However, if I have a particular message selected, and I use the "Add to
Address Book" command either under the Tools menu or by clicking the
little ball next to the sender's name when the message is displayed in
the Preview pane, the contact is added to the Address Book (On My
Computer), even though I don't use that one and it is otherwise empty.
Is there any way either to change the default on this particular
command, or be given the opportunity to select which address book is
used when I invoke this command?
Thanks so much for any help you can offer.
Julia
