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/> "Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination." -- Oscar Wilde -- 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/>
