Default Please help me to add my contacts from emails to specific contact folder

Good day to all,
Hope this email finds everyone healthy and happy.
I wish to go through my emails to add them to my contacts in outlook
2003.
This is how i have been doing it:
1. oppen email
2. right click on the email address who sent me the email
3. when sub menu comes up, i click on " add to contatcs"

Fine , it does that but the problem i have is that it adds it to the
top folder " contacts"
Fair enough, but i want to choose the folder i add it to rather than
put it in the "contacts" folder.
For Example: I have created a few folders where i can segregate my
contacts. I want to choose which folder i add it to rather than adding
it to the general" contacts" then from there moving it into a different
folder depending on what type of contact it is.

I have hundreds of emails i want to do this with, so it would be very
valuable to me not to add them all to " contacts" then sort that folder
out.

I need to leave my " contacts" folder exactley as i want it because
this is the only folder that will sync with my PDA.

Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanking you kindly, God bless.

After Step 3, choose File | Move to Folder, not Save and Close.
