Adding a Contact From an email message

When I right click on an email address within an email message, and I want to add the sender to my contact list, it brings up an abbreviated contact card where I have to click on each element (email, phone, address, etc.) to expand it so I can add information. Is there any way to set the default so it brings up the fully expanded contact card (just as appears when I click to add a new contact from scratch)?

It takes many more steps to expand each field, click on the specific category (business phone, home phone, mobile phone), then copy, paste and start the whole process over for an address.

Hi Ron Schleif,

 

Thank you for choosing Microsoft community.

Based on my test, when you right click on the sender's display name or email address, there's a menu prompted out and there you may click on Add to Outlook Contacts

 

Then, you'll see a complete table for adding a contact.

 

  

Hope it helps! If any update, welcome to share with us.

 

Thanks & Stay safe,

Qian

I like and want the full table you get, but that is not what I'm getting. When I right click on the sender's display name or email address, and click on Add to Outlook Contacts, I get this:
