How to Add a Contact to Your Gmail Address Book?

 

Add a Sender to Google Contacts is very Easy

When you receive an email from someone who is not currently one of your Contacts, you can open a contact screen for the person from within an email. To enter an email's sender as a contact in your Gmail Contacts:

•     Open a message from the sender you want to save as a contact in your Gmail address book.

•     Hover your cursor over the sender's name at the top of the email or click the sender's avatar    image to open an information screen.

•     Click Contact Info on the information screen.

•     Click the + button on the Google Contacts screen that opens.

•     Enter the sender's name and any contact information you have for the person. 
•    You don't have to fill out all the fields. You can always add information later. Older versions    of Gmail entered some of the sender's information automatically, but the current version doesn't.

•     Click Save to save the new contact or wait while Google automatically saves the contact.

• Sending emails in the future is simple because Gmail pulls the information from the contact card when you begin to enter the name or email addres

• Access the Contact in Gmail 

  When you are ready to expand or edit the information you have for your contact:
  1. Open Contacts.
  2. Start typing the contact's name or email address in the search field. Auto-completion will select the contact. If Gmail does not suggest the contact click the correct entry in the search results.
