Why Does Windows Mail forget email addresses?

May 26th, 2010 - 06:04 pm ET by Cheri | Report spam
It's very annoying but many times when I start to email someone, I find that
Windows Mail has forgotten the address and will not complete it, so I have
to go into contacts and email from there. I never knew this to happen with
OE in any of the Win versions before Vista, and wonder why it happens with
Windows Mail. Is there a fix for this? TIA

Windows Mail only remembers the last 29 addresses used. See this about
removing remembered addresses.
