Autocompletion and autoresolution

[Gary VanderMolen]

Those of you who are frustrated by WM's temperamental
completion of recipients typed into the To/Cc/Bcc fields
might be interested in knowing that two different mechanisms
are involved: autocompletion and autoresolution.
Autoresolution uses your Contacts list, while autocompletion
works only with senders you've already sent to.

It was written for Outlook, but much of it applies to WM.

Handy to know - had wondered on occasion about that. Tx.

AutoComplete stores up to 25 names in the Registry, so you can only
auto-complete the 25 most recent addresses you have sent to.
