I think Dan just counseled someone on how to turn this feature off, but go
to Mail and News Preferences -->Compose -->General-->Automatically Check
Names When Sending, which will check your To: names against your address
book and alert you when you have an address that doesn't match. Many have
found this to be annoyingly slow when sending, I used to use it. But now I
use a OneClick button with encapsulated Applescript(s) that contains a list
of the mailing lists and friends that I communicate frequently with,
selecting the appropriate name or list name from a popup menu opens a new
draft window pre-filled out with the account I want to send from and
addressee that I want to send to so I can't fat-finger errors in there :-).
A few simple Applescripts with key commands attached could also work well,
let me know if you're interested.
