make new email address at newContact with properties
{contents:"email@hidden"}
You're making an email address of a contact, not a sender or recipient
address of a message. Check the Dictionary for 'email address' in the
Contact Suite, not 'address' in the Mail and News Suite. When you do it like
this, Entourage knows what to do when you send a message to that contact.
