On or about 4/7/03 2:48 PM chris AKA [EMAIL PROTECTED] eruditely mused the following:
>>My mother and a few friends have started using a cheap ISP. Every so >>often, no matter what email client they use, when they attempt to send >>mail to a recipient using the AUTO completed address straight from the >>address book, the ISP instead rejects it, appending their own address to >>it! The message comes back that the recipient of course, is unrecognized. > >My boss has this problem all the time with OE 5.02. > >From the best of what I can tell, it is user error. What is happening is >(and I'm not an OE user, so bear with me if I don't get it 100% right), >the user is typing in the "shortcut" name from their address book (I >believe OE just uses the first/last name as entered). Then, OE shows this >name via the auto complete. BUT... in order to auto complete it, you must >hit enter or arrow right to actually choose the autocomplete name. > >The user is rather hitting tab, or clicking into the next field and NOT >actually selecting the auto complete name, but rather telling OE to use >the bit of the name as typed as the email address. I've seen what Chris says happen before and I think that this may well be what is happening. I would check out if this is it before you go looking for another solution.
