E mail Auto complete names list
craig_007 - 28/2/10 at 04:20 PM

Hi,

I've got alot of old contacts that I have sent emails to over the years,Now when I send an email now theres a list of names pops up before I finish.

How do I go about clearing all these names as it's getting annoying now !!

Using Windows Mail, i presume?

Tools/Options.../Send

uncheck 'Automatically complete e-mail addresses when composing'

think right click and delete will do one at a time - not sure how you can do more than one at a time though

Delete or rename the hidden outlook.nk2 file usually found at this location. Cocuments and Settingsuser nameApplication DataMicrosoftOutlook.nk2 thats if you want to purge them all.

Cheers

Thanks guys,

I've tried a couple of the above but the names still reappear !!

I've not tried the outlook nk file removal though.

I can't seem to find it,I'm using windows vista.
