After sending an email, the address gets added to the drop-down list
available when you type the first letter in the 'TO' box. But... it
seems that addresses from incoming mail also get put there. Which
means a lot of unwanted names appearing. Is there a way to stop this?
Tx
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.
