Hi all, i have a small problem in that some of my contacts are not
listed in my contacts, example:

in address bar type 'b' get a list of all my 'b' contacts, barbara, ben,
bill, etc
but none of them appear in my address book, or contacts. only listed if
i add them to address bar.

My question is: where are they stored cos I want to delete one or more.

I think they are addresses i have only replied to and never 'created'
but have used for new messages, by just typing the first letter and
selecting from there.

Help please.
Many thanks in advance.

What appears in the recipient field when you start to type has nothing to do
with your Contacts. It is a cache of addresses that you've used before.

Do delete an entry, when the opop-up list appears, use your down arrow key
to select the address you don't want, and press Delete.

Close. They're addresses to which you've sent mail in the past, either a
new message or a reply.
