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.
I have turned off collecting addresses years ago, that address book is
empty. I checked.
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.
Hmm. I'll have to look and see if the offending addresses are AOL or
not. I think they are not but need to verify.

It is bad luck to be superstitious.
