Acquiring email addresses

I've been sent an email in windows live mail that contains around 200 recipients. It's a trade thing & all of the recipients are known to me on a professional level.

What I'd like to do is add those email addresses to my contact file in order to participate in round robin emails, but I can only see that I can add those email adresses one at a time whereas a handy copy & paste would save hours of work. Is there an easy method to do this? I can copy & paste say to notepad, but can't see an easy method to bulk add them to my contacts.

It's a one-at-a-time thing.

Para,

As MB says, unless you fancy hacking together a scraping script.

Look in tools,options and send there is a option to auto save address after replied to 3 times.Don't know if it works for the whole lot but could save you time.

Otherwise use a differant email client

If you use Outlook, how about importing your group email addresses (all 200 addresses, but with one name; Business contacts, for instance) as a .csv into WLM? Haven't used the programme myself, so no expert.
