How to Add a Sender to Your Contacts Fast in AIM Mail or AOL Mail

It's easy to find an old email from somebody you want to mail in AIM Mail or AOL Mail, of course. It's just as easy (maybe faster) to find that person in your address book, though, and you can add a phone number, addresses and other data, too.

Fortunately, adding senders from emails old and new is joyfully easy as well in AIM Mail and AOL Mail.
