Hi John, Normally, you can easily delete unwanted names from the Microsoft Outlook
nickname cache. You simply use the up or down arrows to select a nickname from the list when it's visible, and then hit the Delete key. However, you can completely refresh the Microsoft Outlook nickname cache. Close any running copies of Microsoft Outlook. Open Windows Explorer under Accessories Make sure hidden files and folders are visible in Windows Explorer by navigating to Tools -> Folder Options -> View ->Advanced Settings, and select "Show hidden files and folders." Look in the directory c:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application/Data\Microsoft\Outlook for any files with the .NK2 extension. These are the nickname caches. (If they're not visible there, you may need to search the system for any files that match that extension.) Rename the file to something else. For example, if the file name is Outlook.NK2, you could rename it to Outlook.NK2.bak. Restart Microsoft Outlook. A new Microsoft Outlook nickname cache should now be rebuilt. Regards, John.

The problem is, for some rason, Outlook retains all of the addresses I reply to when accepting a message. so when I want to send a message to the list I have to wade through dozens of addresses to get to the actual list address. I know this is Outlook grying to be helpful by retaining recent addresses I've written to. How do I get rid of that annoying list? of addresses? Thanks.
