the university email global address book. However, you may wish to
create a personal address book containing none-YSJ email
addresses.
Creating a contact

that it is essential to complete is E-mail address: The Display

choice by overtyping it.
Click on the 'Save and Close' button to save the details of your
new contact.

fields as desired and when you have finished, click on the Save and
Close button.
