How to Use Webmail: Adding a Contact to Your Address Book from the Georgetown Directory

If any results match the text you entered, Webmail will display a list of matches, similar to the example shown below.

Note: The number of matches will vary, depending on how many matches there are in the directory, the text you enter, etc.
