Outlook 2002 find option

Hi,
We are using office XP (2002), I was wondering if it’s possible to look at
the list of email address, those who are not in our contact list but when we
type few letters in TO or CC line outlook brings the possible matches. I know
how we can disable that future but I like to delete some old email addresses
which are no longer active.
Thanks for your time for reading this and your advice.

In the e-mail address field, use the drop-down feature to highlight a
particular entry and hit the Del key to delete it. If you want to wipe
them all, delete the .nk2 file.

\Thanks for your reply, I have a follow up. Can we look at the table which
holds the history of email addresses? Or the list of email addresses one are
not in the contact list?
Thanks

I've never bothered to use a hex editor to go looking inside the .nk2
file. I just used PC Mag's FileSnoop and it looks messy in there. You
can see the entries but they aren't simple strings. There may be
forensic tools to assist in digging out the info from the .nk2 file but,
again, I've had no interest in checking up on my friends or coworkers on
to whom they have been addressing e-mails since obviously the Exchange
admin at work could do that or the network admin could use a sniffer to
grab your mail traffic.
