Hallo
I'm still in XP and OE 6.
I'd be grateful for info/advice re manipulating the auto-completion of correspondents' names in Outlook Express 6. It's not that I can't tweak it all - for many of my most frequent contacts, I have filled in the Address Book in such a way that their names come up correctly after 2 or 3 characters. But there are others where I just can't achieve this effect. There is one person in particular where I have now reduced the entry to just two letters (and not a common combination), and if I use the search facility in the addressbook itself, it goes straight to the correct 'card'. But if I put those letters in the 'To:' line of a message, when I press 'send', I get the 'doesn't recognise' error message, and am presented with a huge list of 'possible matches', some of which don't include the letters in combination at all!
Any pointers would be much appreciated.
