Someone sends me an e-mail and I do not have their e-mail in my Thunderbird address book. Is there a way to enter their information into my address book without having to retype it all into my address book. In other e-mail programs that I have used, all I needed to do was click on the message and then click on a drop-down menu item that would simply copy all of the contact information into a new address book entry. Is it possible to do that in Thunderbird?

When viewing a message in a tab or the message pane there is a star to the right of the senders address. If the star is filled with color the address is already in one of your address books. If the star is not filled, click the star to add them. Click the star a second time to open the edit dialog box to add more details to the contact.

This is not the same star that is to the left of the message header when viewing the inbox.
