Where are addresses stored NOT in address book

[GodSpace ~ Catholic Books, Gifts & Music]

Where does Entourage (11.2.5) store email addys that are not in the address
book. Like when you start to type an addy and it shows up in the drop down?
And is there a way to clear out the addresses in the drop down every so
often? Sloppy typing gave me a bad address and it keeps showing up as I have
to send her more info every hour or so. It is NOT defaulting to the more
used and CORRECT spelling - SIGH!

In Entourage X and 2004 there is an option in the preferences to clear this
address Cache (Mail & News prefs; Compose tab). You can also (in the same
place) turn off the display of these addresses (but still keep the Œauto
complete¹ of names in your address book).

In both Entourage v9 and in vX individual items can be removed by adding an
entry to the address book that EXACTLY matches the rogue entry in the
history list and then deleting it.

In entourage 2004, hitting the 'junk' button in the toolbar will remove the
address of that message from the cache as well.


Alternatively, just wait a few days/weeks. The remembered addresses are
prioritised by age & frequency and the list is limited to a maximum of 200,
so eventually your mistakes will fall out at the bottom.
