Tech Tips - Get rid of those pesky cached email addresses in Outlook


Microsoft Outlook has a handy feature that caches the email addresses you type, and offers them up as you type new messages.  This can, at times, be problematic.  If you’ve mistyped an address, Outlook may still cache the incorrect address and provide it the next time you start typing the address.  Also, if there’s an address that you rarely use, and it comes up before a frequently used address, it may be helpful to remove the seldom used address from the cache.

This task is very easily accomplished, but also easily overlooked.  As you begin typing the address in a new message, Outlook will display the list of cached addresses it is suggesting.  Simply click on the “X” next to the name and it is removed from the cache.  Presto!
