outlook is beyond redemption

[i hate microsoft]

outlook is the dumbest program i've ever seen. i'm trying
to save a sender's email address into a specific group
within my address book but somehow outlook does not allow
you to do that. there are completely stupid and useless
fields such as "IP Phone" and "View Map" but there isn't
something as simple and logical as saving a person's email
address into a group in the address book. the people who
design microsoft's programs must spend all day thinking
about color schemes and zero time on the real stuff.
outlook is by far the most tragically braindead software
available on the market today. excel is not too far
behind.

I thought it was something I was doing incorrectly that I could not add an incoming email address to my address book without having to retype it. I cannot believe that such a basic function is not incorporated in Outlook.

It's there: Right-click on the name/address in the incoming message and choose "Add to Contacts."
