| | How to delete email address in "auto-complete" list Windows Mail stores all e-mail adresses that have been used. This list is used to auto-complete an email address when making a new email. This is handy except in those cases where the user made an error because the erroneous email address is still in the list and will be used again. How can I delete or edit this list of formerly used email addresses? (PS I am not looking for the contact lists as that is easy enough to correct!) For your further clarification I work with elderly people who are new to computers and typically have few email contacts. -- Rob |
