Does he use the Held folder? Did he perhaps release them?
Reply to 
them? Has he received email from those spam addresses?

There are only three ways I know of to add Friends.
manually, by 
sending to those addresses (with 'add outgoing addresses to
friends' 
checked and by releasing them from the Held folder with the
button to 
release and add to friends.

In all likelihood, it's pilot error.

Thanks Warren & Pete,

I thought the same, but hadn't thought about Pete's idea to
make sure he
didn't have the reply set.  He may have inadvertently
clicked yes.  He
claims not to have released anything, but seemed odd to me.

By Held you mean the pending folder in the friends portion?

If you're talking about webmail, I don't know. Never used
it. When I 
log into my account settings --> spam --> held
messages, that's what 
I'm talking about. This may indeed show up as something else
in 
webmail, but I don't know what it's called there.
