| | Old address keeps popping up. My wife changed her email address. I dutifully went into contacts and made the change. The old address was completely deleted and "Contacts" now show ONLY her new address. However, when I open "Send Mail" and type her name, the old address continually pops up. Mail seems to have an odd set of rules as to which email address it will use, unfortunately, I have no idea what these rules are. |

| | Re: Old address keeps popping up. Gus's problem is with the auto-complete, when you type in a contact name. WM keeps a separate list of 29 addresses, which may not be stored in the contacts. -- Windows 7 beta http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview http://download.live.com/wlmail "stu hamilton" <discip62@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:uaQBriHsJHA.5452@xxxxxx Quote: > I had the same problem.
