Copy email address from To: field

[Velson Horie]

I wish to copy addresses from the To: and CC: fields to a message or to a
Word document. The email address in a message is frequently in the form of
"A. Other [[email protected]]" or "A. Other" (all underlined within quotes).
However, I can select only the complete underlined portion. This can be
copied, but when this is pasted, only the text e.g. "A.Other" is pasted. The
email address is not copied.

How do I copy the email address?

Here is one way to do it: If the email address is not currently in your
contact list, right click the address in the message and add it to your
contact list. Then in the contacts folder copy the email address and paste it
into Word or a message. Using kybd Ctrl C and Ctrl V works fine. Works the
same in 2003 and 2007.

Thank you. This works and may force me to use the contacts list.

I have rarely used the contacts list because it involves so many steps to
achieve a desired result. This is a very cack handed way to cut and paste!
When MS introduced cut and paste 20 years ago, it revolutionised word
processing. It is a pity that they have moved away from the concept.
