You can add a contact by capturing existing information:

On the History tab, select an entry that is not a contact. Control-click and choose Add Contact.
The Contact Profile dialog appears. Complete the dialog as desired and press OK.
If the contact method is Softphone or Jabber, an online status request is sent to this person. See “Sharing Online
Status” on page 39.

Address within Bria.
