It is possible that many people are frustrated by this because, if you have
selected to use MS Word as you email editor, you cannot simply arrow down to
the bad email address and hit delete. it does not work with Word. So, in
Outlook, I went to tools, options, mail setup and unchecked "use word as your
email editor" and then created a new mail message and deleted the offending
saved email address.

If that article is unavailable, the gist of it is to send a message using a
name or address that will add another entry to that dropdown list. Then you
will have the ability to use the arrow key to select the name you want to
remove. This step is no longer necessary in Outlook 2003 and higher.

When you create a new email and type a letter in the to... box, it will
show
previous email addresses. A user has changed some email addresses but it
still shows the old address when their name is type in. Is there any way
to
flush the memory or get it to forget the old address.
