click) harvest all e-mail addresses from an incoming mail into my
address book?

Look for them in your "Collected Addresses" address book, move them to
your Personal Address Book or whatever AB you like. You can edit them
before or after the move.

The original post started by saying that problem one was not being able
to move addresses from Collected Addresses into other books, how is
using what doesn't work a solution for problem two? Not to mention what
he really wants is to get the addresses from incoming mail, to avoid
sending everyone a mail saying "my mailer is too dumb to collect an
address unless I send mail to it."

This is more a display issue than a functional one. Dragging a record from one address book to another /appears/ to fail, because the address does not appear in the target AB, but it really has been moved, SM just fails to display it there. Closing and reopening the AB shows that it really did move, but the user is easily misled into thinking it didn't.

If you do "reply all" and "send later" the mail sits in your outbox, you
can open the outbox and click "add to Address Book" on each name. That
sucks marginally less than typing them by hand.

Yeah, that would work, too. In both cases -- your way and going through the Collected Addresses AB -- the first and last name are not parsed into separate fields (in case that matters to you).
