autocomplete suggest names cache issue in outlook 2003

[Edem]

Is microsoft going to do something about the limited ability of outlooks
autocomplete name suggesting? I would like to have a suggestion of my
contacts all the time. even when I have a contact that I haven't sent an
e-mail message to in some time. is there a resolution for this? maybe a
script or patch to cure this annoying problem?

The name cache has a limit of 1000 names - so I don't expect that feature to
be added.

Ingressor can import addresses into the file.

Can we clear the autocomplete cache. I've got a name that shows up that's
not in any of my contact lists?

Never mind. "Deleting "Ghost" Contacts answered my question.

You can clear individual entries in your autocomplete cache by scrolling
down and highlighting the unwanted entry, then pressing the delete key.
