   3 If you would like to add the sender of a message you're reading to your
   4 address book quickly and easily without cutting and pasting, then this
   5 plugin simplifies the process.  It scans the mail message you're reading
   6 for any email address and lets you add it with a quick form.

  18 Description
  19 ===========
  20
  21 By pulling down a list and selecting the address you want to add, you
  22 are then presented with a familiar Add to Personal Address Book screen.
  23 By filling out this form, you will then add the email address to your
  24 personal address book.
  25
  26 The user can decide if the box is shown, where it is shown on the bottom
  27 of the Read screen, and whether or not to attempt to verify that the
  28 address works.
  29
  30 When trying to verify if the address works, it checks to see if the host
  31 has any DNS record available.  Usually this will work.
