I am not sure what the "For i = 1 To 3" does

Outlook's ContactItem has 3 email address fields. To be thorough, you need to check for a match in each one.

Dumb question: If you're building the message from data in an Excel
worksheet, why not use that information (i.e. what you use to set the value
of To) to create the contact directly?

That was going to be my approch, just one or two things I am not sure about
in your code.(you can see where I commented it out when I was trying this
out....)
Here is what I have, but I am not sure what the "For i = 1 To 3" does....
also a few other little things.... but this looks like what I need... I
think... I might need to clean up the extra varibles though...


Sub AddRecipToContacts1(objSRecip as string)

Dim strFind As String

Dim strAddress As String

Dim objSMail As Redemption.SafeMailItem

Dim objSRecip As Redemption.SafeRecipient
Dim objNS As NameSpace
Dim colContacts As Items
Dim objContact As ContactItem
Dim i As Integer
Dim olApp As Outlook.Application

' process message recipients

'MsgBox "checking: " & ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1)

' Set objSMail = CreateObject("Redemption.SafeMailItem")

' objMail.Save

' objSMail.Item = objMail

Set olApp = New Outlook.Application
Set objNS = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set objFolder = GetFolder("Personal Folders\BPContacts")
If Not objFolder Is Nothing Then
Set colContacts = objFolder.Items
If Not colContacts Is Nothing Then
Else
MsgBox "colcontacts is empty"
End If
Else
MsgBox "Could not get a MAPIFolder object for Personal
Folders\BPContacts"
End If
strAddress = objSRecip
MsgBox strAddress

For i = 1 To 3
strFind = "[Email" & i & "Address] = " & AddQuote(strAddress)
MsgBox strFind
Set objContact = colContacts.Find(strFind)
If Not objContact Is Nothing Then
Exit For
End If
Next



If objContact Is Nothing Then
Set objContact = objFolder.Items.Add(olContactItem)
With objContact
.FirstName = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1)
.LastName = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2)
.HomeTelephoneNumber = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3)

.Save
End With
MsgBox "Added: " & strAddress
