Does anyone know if it is possible to edit the way the "Suggest names while completing" option looks at addresses? This is located in the advanced Email settings. I know the setting is uesed to turn on/off the address name checking, but what I want to do is edit what it checks. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks for any help on this one.

When you say you want to edit what it checks, what specifically are you seeking to edit? If you jump to the "Addressing" tab under Tools->Services you can define the order in which it looks for addresses (e.g., Contacts first, then corporate address book, etc.). That will allow you to change the order of the address books it checks.

I want to edit the address list that it creates for checking names. If I type johnX@test.com and hit the check names button, Outlook stores this address somewhere. Every time I start to type john it will try to use johnX@test.com (even though this is not an adress in my address book). I want to know where Outlook is storing this address and if I edit (delete) it?

Thanks
