import contact information from an email into a 'new contact'/vcar
 
when I open an email and there is some contact information at the end;
for example:
"jane doe
abc company
1st st 1st ave
ny ny 10000
718 111-1111
"
I want to import this information directly into a new contact window. Is
this possible, how do I do this?
