JR shared this with us in microsoft.public.word.newusers:
Is the the "Be Nice" forum or the "Word" forum ???? John John, It's the "Who wants to be added to my *plonk* file today" newsgroup. PS: I don't "forum", I "newsgroup". NetNews/UseNet/newsgroup people (the old generation) usually have a very different attitude compared to web/forum people (the new generation). When a forum is an interface to a newsgroup, you mix the two groups together. So what essentially happened here was a generation conflict. As always: Your Mileage May Vary(tm). PPS: When I'm talking about old, new, generations etc you must interpret them as metaphores. I'm not talking about age, but about familiarity with technology and its social implications. It's possible to have a 28 year old person in the old generation (those who live by RFC1855 et al) and a 50 year old person in the new generation (those who think RFC means Royal Flying Corps or Rugby Football Club). That's the fun thing about technology: it redefines social relations as we know them, making interaction with others more interesting. Hey, shouldn't some sociology student somewhere out there write his paper on this subject? -- Amedee Van Gasse |

Now, now, THAT is nonsense. Abusive and belligerent?
I posted a surprise and disappointment that there was no easy, intuitive way to save addresses from e-mails received. Ritter197 "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... What question? Ritter197 did not ask a question. He posted a rant. Moreover, it was irrelevant to Word because the address book is the province of Outlook, as both JR and Graham pointed out, suggesting that he post a question in an Outlook NG. Given that there was no question in the first place and that Ritter197's post was belligerent and abusive, it was actually rather gracious of Graham to provide an answer at all. -- Suzanne S.

I thanked you for the clear,easy to understand response by you.
I did not see that in Graham's response, but nevertheles apologized. AND since this is a newsgroup, it is generally dicouraged to post individual responses. Now, can you stop. Suzanne and stick with HELPING ! That would be appreciated by many. I am sure. Ritter197 "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

My impression, though, was that most of the incivility here was coming in by
way of Usenet and almost certainly from the orphaned (and deprecated) microsoft.public.word.general. By "here" I meant "in this thread," but when I switched to "Show All Messages," I was surprised to discover that "this thread" was not the one I thought it was, but the comment still applies: note that none of the participants are @discussions.com. -- Suzanne S.

I'm a bit late on this thread; but if you open a received email, you can
right-click on the From 'displayname' and select Add to Outlook Contacts. That seems pretty easy and intuitive to an aged silver surfer like me. The last automation I would want is to have a sender's address added automatically to contacts - think how may SPAM addresses there would be by now! BTW. There is no microsoft.public.word.general and hasn't be for at least 5 years. -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "Ritter197" wrote in message news : Now, now, THAT is nonsense.
