Autocomplete email address question..
 
When I type the letters of a name in the To: box, autocomplete suggests a
list of names from which I may choose. Here is my problem - I have about 8
groups under my contacts and somehow it is only set to look for the matching
names in one of the groups. but I want to add one more group to this - how
do I do it??
Thanks!

First, Outlook doesn't have "groups". Second, the autocompletion feature
does not reference your Contacts in any way whatsoever. It merely shows you
addresses you've used before in alphabetical order based on the characters
you've types.

Can that list be edited? Can some of those be deleted?

You add to it by sending an email to someone after typing in their address.

You can delete from it by typing one letter, then using your up and down
arrow keys to highlight what you want to delete. When you highlight an
address, just hit your Delete key.

And, in addition to what Gregg said, there's always a commercial product:
