Title: Is there a file to delete for AutoComplete
Hey, that rhymes.
My mom still has Entourage X. She wants to clear the AutoComplete, as it contains a lot of email addresses from spammers.
I checked the Entourage.mvps.org site and found the info there (I've included it below), but aside from that instructions: is there a file that she can delete that removes all MRU and AutoCompletes? Her arthritis is too much to copy/type in the names into her Address book, etc.
Thanks!

1 How do I remove addresses from the Most Recently Used (AutoComplete) list?
Entourage X and 2004: To clear ALL there is a preference in Mail & News: Compose: Clear List button. There is also an option in the prefs to disable this feature all together.
Entourage 2001: There is no Clear List button.
Both versions: To clear a single address, add it exactly like the one that is remembered to your address book and mark it as Junk (or assign category Junk). You can just delete the address, but if you receive it again it will just be added back. Marking as junk will permanently remove it from the AutoComplete list.
The "Most Recently Used" (MRU) is often misunderstood. These entries are harmless. They never show up in your Address Book, only in the AutoComplete list. Also, Entourage automatically selects the address you will most likely want to send to based on the text you've already typed.
