Vista - Resetting the windows mail completion cache

I entered an email address in contacts. I mistyped the information and
deleted the contact and then entered the correct information. Now when I add
the nickname, the error email address shows along with the correct one. I
think I need to either reset the completion cache or nickname, but cannot
find how to do that.
Thanks.

It's stored in the registry. It only 'remembers' a maximum of 29
recently used addresses, so eventually the incorrect one will
drop off the remembered list.

Here is how I fixed this same problem.

Open regedit and navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Mail\Recently Used Addresses" and delete the "Recently Used Addresses" folder. Doing this will reset the cache of addresses.

I.m trying to setup my incoming server as POP3, it is not letting me. I'm
trying to upgrade from outlook express..SOS

What does that have to do with the subject title of this thread?
