open the address book and go to tools > options. You could disable the name
checking/autocomplete *features*. It's in the advanced email options
somewhere under tools > options.  Just remember to have an 8 hour brown-bag
session for your end users that covers the ALT+k function.

Subject: Outlook name completion question


I have a users that has upgraded from Office 2000 to XP.  No problems but
now he has an issue where we have a "Joel User1" in our GAL and a "Joel
User2" in his contact folder.  When creating a new e-mail he enters "Joel"
and then heads over and composes the rest of the e-mail.  Outlook will
auto-complete the rest of the e-mail address with "Joel User2" from his
contact folder.  After hitting send he notices that it went to the wrong
Joel as he wanted the Joel from our GAL and not from his contact folder.
He's asked if there is a way to set Outlook to check the GAL then his
Contact folder for names (currently it checks the contacts folder then the
GAL).  In Outlook 2000 you could do this under Tools|Services|Addressing
Tab.  I can no longer find this in the latest Outlook.  Does anybody know
where Microsoft moved this feature?
