Hello,

Could anyone tell me how to remove some of my addresses in Entourage?
I can't see them in my adressbook, so it must save them somewhere else on de HD perhaps???

For instance; I want to send my mum an email, i click "New", type in "mum", and it will give me two addresses for my mother (as she changed hers). To avoid choosing the wrong one, I want to delete one of them from the address book. So, I go to the address book, and.... neither of them are there! So, where are they kept?

I'm sure this is a really stupid question and the answer so very simple, but it's driving me mad!

Thanks!!

I found this in the Entourage help file. What you'll want to do is turn off the recent address list and clear the list, that way, old addresses that change won't show back up in the box.

Hope this helps!

Change settings for the recently used address list
1. On the Entourage menu, click Preferences.
2. Under Mail & News Preferences, click Compose.
3. Under Recent Addresses, do one of the following:
• To turn the recently used address list on or off, select or clear the Display a list of recently used addresses when addressing messages check box.
• To remove all entries from the recently used address list, click Clear List.
As you send and receive messages, the recently used address list will fill with new entries.

Hi, thank you and sorry for the late response!
Before i do this (how could I have not seen this?), will this clear ALL of my addresses?

Hello.

Actually, no. It won't clear your other addresses. Entourage keeps a list of recently used addresses in "memory" so it can recall them later. To make you feel even better, I just cleared mine and all the contacts in my address book stayed put! :-)

Good luck!
