When I first saw Angus's email I tested this option using my Curtin email
account, which isn't in my address book. It wasn't added, so I concluded
that it doesn't cause unknown addresses to be added, just creates a Link
between the message and a Contact.

It still sounds a lot like the action of a rogue Mail Rule... Can't imagine
what else could cause it in Entourage.
