Default Can't auto-suggest

Hi,

I'm using Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 SP2. I understand that the
auto-suggest names in the "To" field of a new mail is on by default, but mine
doesn't work.

Even after reading the online help, to carry out the following:

1. Go to Tools-Options-Preferences-E-mail Options-Advanced E-mail Options

2. Check "Suggest names while completing To, Cc, and Bcc fields" (which is
already checked by the way)

Auto-suggesting still can't work.
Can anyone help?

Regards,
Yeo

State how you think you have populated your autocompletion cache.

Each time I need to send a new e-mail, I will type in the reicipient's email
address in the To: field.
I hope that's what you are looking for if I understand correctly.

Have you sent enough messages to have populated a robust cache of names?
Does autocomplete remember a name within a given session?

Yes, I've sent enough messages. I've been using this PC for a few years, and
it works fine, but after I've upgraded to a new PC, it stopped working.

And autocomplete does not remember a name within a given session.

Then you haven't configured it correctly.
