Addressing messages using the Directory
To specify a recipient who is in the Directory, enter the recipient's full name or part of the name. For details, see the help for the standard message form.
To create a message from the Directory
If you have not yet created a new message, you can use the Directory or Who's Online list to create a preaddressed standard message. To do this:
1 Select the listed recipient.
2 Click Create Mail To.
Addressing messages to your contacts
You address messages to your contacts just as you specify any other recipient who is in the Directory.
If your contact has multiple email addresses (such as a business and a personal one), all addresses will be included in the list of matches when you type the contact name, or part of it. Simply choose the address to which you want to send your message.
You can also create a message addressed to a contact or mail list that you have opened in your Contacts folder or a contact database. To do this, click Create Mail To on the contact/mail list form.

Addressing messages to Internet addresses
