Address book = Contacts

Managing your contact addresses couldn’t be easier in Yahoo! Mail Beta. But the one thing that might be a little confusing is that we no longer call it the Address book. All of your saved email addresses and contact information are conveniently located in the left column of the Mailbox window in the item called “Contacts”.
The thing to remember is that now you can manage your whole contact list (formerly known as the Address book) right from the comfort of your Yahoo! Mail Beta window. Adding, deleting, creating contact lists, editing lists and emailing contacts can all be done with a click of a mouse button.
Quick tip of the week
And now for your favorite feature… Andrew’s quick tip. Did you know that, if you right click on a name in your inbox, there is a menu option on the shortcut menu that appears (it’s down towards the bottom) labeled “Add Sender to Contacts”. If you click that menu item you can add that name and contact information right to your contact list. How’s that for easy.
Happy emailing!!

Now I know where my address book went. I think Yahoo does a great job, and I wish them praise for business.

Andrew,
Love the new yahoo mail beta, but really wish the contacts were sorted by last name and not first name. Do you know how to change the view to last name?
Thanks,
Robert

I am fed up trying to read and write Emails to be informed that I am “Time Expired”. Is this necessary and how do I open “Pandora’s box?

Way back in March 2007, Robert asked about sorting contacts by last name, not first name. Was there any answer to his question about whether it’s possible to do that?

Hi JC,
Thanks for your comment. At the moment the only way to sort by last name is to view your contacts using the classic version of mail. To do that, you will have to edit the contact categories, by clicking “options” and the “contacts options”.
Hope that helps.
