import contact information from an email into a 'new contact'/vcar

[Mperez1]

when I open an email and there is some contact information at the end;
for example:
"jane doe
abc company
1st st 1st ave
ny ny 10000
718 111-1111
(e-mail address removed)"
I want to import this information directly into a new contact window. Is
this possible, how do I do this?

Outlook cannot. It's just text in a message and Outlook has no built-in
method of processing the bodies of messages. There may be third-party tools
you can buy that will, however. Start here:
