Outlook Express

[Greg Madison, MS]

I've just switched over to Vista and find that anyone sending me an e-mail
will automatically become an option when creating a message using Outlook
Express. For example I may regularly e-mail back and forth with
(e-mail address removed) and when I type the letter 'j' in the 'To:' field of
Outlook Express, I'll get a list of anyone who sent me an email who's
address starts with 'j'. If I never intend to send them an e-mail, I don't
want them on the list.

I've searched the Contacts list and the ones I'm trying to take off the list
aren't there. Where are these at? Any help would be appreciated.

If you're using Vista, you aren't using Outlook Express, you're using
Windows Mail - OE won't run on Vista.

You might have best luck if you post in the Windows Mail group,
"microsoft.public.windows.vista.mail".

Hi,

Tools/Options/Send tab, uncheck the line to automatically complete email
addresses. Vista automatically indexes all the addresses, you can't be
selective about which ones it remembers.
