If you click check name when only part of it is typed it will check the address book and fill it in. Ctrl+K is the keyboard shortcut for check name and I use that all the time.
That .nk2 file is a definite backup and restore file when you replace a machine if you have a needy user. Some people refer to those auto complete addresses as their contacts list. When you go to their real contacts it's blank. As stated though it does have a limit and I have seen it get corrupt.

Yes, they can click the To: button, but why wouldn't it just check the Contacts book automatically? On Jul 28, 2010, at 5:32 PM, Chris Wherley wrote: > There is a nickname file in the old profile.
