Can't manage some e-mail addresses memorized by Outlook!?!

Outlook evidently memorizes e-mail addresses that I use (without necessarily
adding them to my contacts db). This is fine, except that I cannot figure out
how to edit/remove these (esp. where some are obsolete and/or incorrect).
This creates problems when sending to a contact, for whom many such addresses
may have been recorded by Outlook. How do get at and manage this "ghost list"?
 
Look around. It's posted here daily.
Remove individual addresses from the autocompletion cache by highlighting
the entry when presented in the suggested names list (use your arrow key to
migrate to the entry) and then hitting your Delete key before you tab out of
the field. If your autocomplete list contains only a single entry, use the
directions here:

To clear the entire cache, follow the instructions here:
