How do i add someone to my yahoo mail contact list, not yahoo messenger?

I am a subscriper to Mypoints and they recommend I add them to my contact list so their emails will not be sent to the junk mail folder. I already know how to add addresses to yahoo messenger, but I've never added a contact to my email account before. Yahoo help seems of no help.

    You will need to have their Email address ready.

    Click Contacts to open your Yahoo Address Book.

    Click the Add a Contact button on the left to open the form to fill out, of the window. Or..

    When you open your address book, look for a form that is either at the top or bottom of your address book. Fill it out and click the Add button.

    Note: If the form is at the bottom of your address list, there is an option to move it to the top.

    Open one of their emails, where their email address is right click on it a box will open and ask if you want to add it to your contacts.
