Entering Partial Recipient Names (Outlook 2002)

[Rob]

Hi!

I've read Ben's question dated 04-20-2005 and Russ' answer:

..... autocomplete has nothing to do with your Contacts data. Names are
entered into the autocompletion cache only as you send messages ....

If I understand this correctly it means that if I enter (e-mail address removed)
once, Outlook will always (also) list John Doe when I enter "joh ". John
is not necessarily in my Contacts.

How can I delete the autocompletion cache or at least get rid of John
from that list?

TIA - Robert

How can I delete the autocompletion cache

WIth Outlook closed, delete the file

%AppData%\Microsoft\Outlook\profilename.NK2

(where "profilename" matches the name of your mail profile).

or at least get rid of John from that list?

Select the entry by using the arrow keys to select the one you don't want
and press Delete.
