No go. Try the Junk method, or do this: Give your friend's current Address Book entry a unique nickname, beginning with 3 or 4 letters (or numbers!) not matched by anyone else in the Address Book. When you start typing those letters in, he'll be the first and only one in the list. And, don't worry, the nickname will not show up in the email. Now - if the other address continues to show up _with a contact icon_ not an @ sign, it means that his old address is still attached to his current Address Book entry. If you're absolutely sure you don't have it listed there any more, first delete the current contact for him in the Address Book and remake it (with only his current address, naturally). Reassign the nickname. He _really_ shouldn't show up any more id you use the nickname now. If he does, it would mean that contacts aren't really being deleted and you have database corruption., In that case, you ought to be seeing a lot more going wrong than just this. If so, do a database rebuild. -- Paul Berkowitz -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
