Add a contact from email

This sender just emailed with a purchase question and I want to follow up. Add Priya Sharma from priya.sharma@acme.com to my contacts with her company Acme Solutions and note ‘purchase leads — follow up next week’. Include her phone number if it’s in the signature.

Before adding, extract useful fields from the signature and message: company name, job title, phone, timezone. Put the reason to contact up front — ‘purchase lead’ — and warn if the sender uses a generic team inbox that shouldn’t be added as a single contact.

I got a brief inquiry from someone at Acme and I don’t know if it’s a personal contact or a generic team address. I’m afraid adding the wrong contact will clutter my list. Should I add priya.sharma@acme.com as a contact now or wait for a clearer identifier? Recommend the best next step and why.

I keep ignoring new contacts in emails and later spend time hunting histories when it’s time to follow up. What habit should I adopt so important contacts get captured without adding noise? Propose one checklist step I can apply to every qualifying email and how to audit it weekly.
