Managing Your E-mail Addresses

Clearing Saved Auto-Complete E-Mail Addresses

When typing an address into the To:, Cc: or Bcc: lines of a new message in Outlook, Outlook will use auto-complete and automatically suggest an address based on addresses it has cached.

To turn off this feature so that addresses are not suggested:

  1. From the Tools menu, select Options.
  2. Select the E-Mail Options button, then the Advanced E-mail Options button.
  3. Ensure the Suggest names while completing the To, Cc and Bcc fields checkbox is not selected.

Removing an Address from the List

You can remove addresses from you list so that they are not suggested by the auto-complete feature.

  1. Open a new message and begin typing the address.
  2. Use the up and down arrow keys to select the address to be removed from the addresses suggested. When the address to be removed is highlighted, press the Delete key.

Removing All Saved Addresses

  1. Right-click on the Start menu and select Explore.
  2. From the Tools menu, select Folder Options.
  3. Select the View tab, and then select the Show hidden files and folders radio button. Select OK.
  4. Browse to the C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook folder, where username is your UT EID.
  5. Delete the .NK2 file.

    WARNING: This deletes ALL your address in Outlook.
