No George, I'm not that desperate, just curious more than anything. But I do like your referral of being a child. Makes me feel ... almost young! (chuckle.)

If you really want to clean them out manually, I can point you to the entry. Otherwise I suspect that stopping auto complete may clean them out. I'm not about the experiment on this system, even for you my dear child. (Smile) George.

I know how to do that, but what I'm trying to fathom out is why, when I start to type an Email in the To field, does it remember people whether they are in my contacts or not? Where is Vista storing this information? It isn't a problem, just that I can't work out where to go and clean them out. I thought it was only supposed to remember people you had in your address book? Ho-hum! thanks anyway. I guess it's just a Vista trait that we'll all come to know and ... accept? (smile.)

Go to Options, navigate to the Send tab, and then 4th down, uncheck "Automatically complete e-mail addresses when composing". Close and re-start Windows Mail. George.
