I've noticed the same behavior -- the addresses are ones I'm familiar
with (often obsolete by now), but I can't find them in ANY of my
address books, so they can't be deleted. I'd love to know where to
find them!
Have you checked the address book called "Collected Addresses"? In general, it
collects addresses it sees in incoming messages, but you can set it to collect
addresses from outgoing messages as well.
Edit | Preferences | Mail & Newsgroups | Addressing:
[x] Add email addresses to my: [Collected Addresses]
If you want to purge an obsolete address, make sure to check this AB, otherwise
SM
will continue to use it for autocomplete. Once you've purged it, SM won't see it
again so it won't add it back.
To search an address book for an obsolete address, enter all or part of the
desired
address in the search window, not the person's name (which can vary). And
remember
that AOHell senders give no name, just an address, so you won't find them in
"Collected Addresses" by searching for their names.
This has happened to me frequently. Someone will say, "don't use this
address..."
and I'll reply to that address, only to discover that Collected Addresses has
captured it and thus put the (now obsolete) address back in the system.
