    Auto filling in of email addresses ?

    When I go to write an email in windows mail...and I want to put in to whom
    the email is to. The auto fill is putting in email addresses that I have not
    saved in my contacts. It will pop up a list of email addresses to ppl I have
    written to, but not saved (including the ones from the contact list) in the
    past.

    Is there anyway to stop this from happening? I just want the auto fill to
    fill in the email address from my actual contact list.

    You can fix that problem by upgrading to Windows Live Mail.
    It uses your regular contacts list for auto-completion.
