search for string of contacts by a string of email addresses

Kerm Rudgeon

In OL 2003 one could search for a string of contacts by using a string of
email addresses , in OL 2007 I cannot find how to do it. I wish to clean up
contact list and do not want to have to do it by one email address at a time.

These are bounces from an email blast and I want to remove them. Thanks for
your help.

Ctrl+Shift+F to open Advanced find - use the email field on the General tab
and comma separate the addresses or partial addresses. This field will
search both the full name and email address field so you'll probably want to
be fairly specific with addresses that contain common names (i.e., you want
to find (e-mail address removed) - searching for mary will find all marys. use mary@h
instead.)
