I do not think there is any way to 'turn off' an address book from the autocomplete. No offense intended by this comment, but you really should pay attention to whom you are sending email's to. I do not believe it is the responsibility of the email program to save the user from embarrassment. What fun would life be if people didn't do silly things on occasion? :) If you feel strongly that this type of feature should be added to Mozilla, you are welcomed to file an RFE (Request For Enhancement) in Bugzilla.
