auto-complete email addresses when composing

R

Richardo

in Windows Mail, when I compose a message, the auto-complete addresses box is
selected but when I type the first letter of any address, Mail only shows the
addresses starting with that letter that I have used in the past week - all
other addresses starting with that letter are not shown. Has anyone else
encountered this problem? And are there any solutions? Outlook Express used
to show all the names progressively as the address was typed in.

Windows Mail only shows addresses from the last 29 addresses you
sent messages to.

You may prefer to download and install Windows Live Mail, which does
better at finding the addresses:
