In Mail, how do I remove an old address that is no longer valid? For example: Joe at aol.com changes his address to Joe at Hotmail.com. I change this in my address book. However, when I go to send a message and type "Joe" in the "To" box up comes both his addresses?the old and new. If I'm not careful I might click his old address instead of his new one. Is there a way to remove Joe's old address so it won't come up in the list of addresses? Thanks.

While in mail, go to the pull-down menu in the tool bar named window. Click on "previous recipients", and eliminate the ones you don't want. (Delete them)

I find it worthwhile to delete all of them from time to time. Keeps things nice and neat -- and less chance of sending something to the wrong person.

Thanks, "D", for your help. So simple, so effective. I appreciate your taking the time to help me...SlimJim

Thanks, Skybolt, that's an interesting approach. I presume doing that doesn't affect any addresses in my Address Book? I've just waded through "prior recipients" and got rid of the few that were giving me trouble. But, just deleting them all might be an easier approach...SlimJim
