Hello Sparky,
Welcome to the Vista Forums.
Are you using Windows Mail? WM creates a list of the last 29 (I think) email addresses you have sent emails to. I suspect that is where the other names are coming from. More info here: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/152781-recently-used-addresses-windows-mail.html
I'm using Outlook from Office 2007 and it doesn't seem to check for names until I hit the send button and I believe it is only using my Outlook contacts.
Hope this helps.
Please keep us posted.

its not so much as to check names etc , its showing names when I don`t have them in my address book. I still want it to suggest names from my address book, just not the names that show up that are not, it may have had an email replyied to all is why its showing , but not added to my comntacts list
