Hi Entourage is acting a bit strange

When you start a new message you type the first syllable of the person who
you want to mail to.

Since 2 hours I only have email addresses who pop up in the Add space that I
actually never mail , and all my regular email addresses seem to have gone
out of that pop up list.

Is there a way to work on that?

They're still all inside my address book but for one way or the other It
doesn't see these addresses anymore.

Anyone?

Thank you

In Entourage X there is an option in the preferences to clear this address
Cache (Mail & News prefs; Compose tab). You can also (in the same place)
turn off the display of these addresses (but still keep the Œauto complete¹
of names in your address book).

In both Entourage v9 and in vX individual items can be removed by adding an
entry to the address book that EXACTLY matches the rogue entry in the
history list and then deleting it.


Alternatively, just wait a few days/weeks. The remembered addresses are
prioritised by age & frequency and the list is limited to a maximum of 200,
so eventually your mistakes will fall out at the bottom.
