saving sent mail address

[Richard Mahan]

I have Outlook 2002 and would like to know how I configure my sent mail
that the email address is saved in a drop down list from the:

To: line in the email. I hope that I have made myself clear. in other words
by typing the first letter of the address the list will appear.

Aloha Richard,

I believe you're looking for AutoSuggest. It's been a while since I've looked
at Outlook 2002 but if I recall correctly that feature wasn't added to Outlook
until Outlook 2003.

Ben is incorrect. Outlook 2002 has the autocompletion feature and it's
controlled by the "Suggest names while completing To, Cc, and Bcc fields"
checkbox found on Tools>Options>E-mail Options>Advanced E-mail Options
dialogue.
