When typing in the address of the authorized recipient of an email, Outlook makes automatic suggestions. Once you have misspelled an email address and sent it, this wrong e-mail address continues to show up as a suggestion in the drop-down menu. This means that you run the repeated risk of sending important emails to the wrong email address.
Follow these steps to permanently remove an incorrect auto-suggestion in Outlook
- Open a new e-mail
- Write the beginning of the name of the recipient in the "To" field.
- When the unwanted suggestion appears, press the "Down Arrow" key until you select the wrong email address.
- Then press "delete" on your keyboard or click the "x" on the right side of the list.
The result: the wrong email address will no longer be suggested.
