It makes it so much easier to give relevant advice when we know your environment.
In Entourage X there is an option in the preferences to clear this address Cache (Mail & News prefs; Compose tab). You can also (in the same place) turn off the display of these addresses (but still keep the �auto complete� of names in your address book). In both Entourage v9 and in vX individual items can be removed by adding an entry to the address book that EXACTLY matches the rogue entry in the history list and then deleting it. Alternatively, just wait a few days/weeks. The remembered addresses are prioritised by age & frequency and the list is limited to a maximum of 200, so eventually your mistakes will fall out at the bottom. -- Barry Wainwright <http://www.barryw.net/> "Never trust a dog to watch your food." -- Patrick, age 10 -- 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/>
