Tip #3344 - No More Suggestions

No
More Suggestions
So, you're working
in MS Outlook. You're getting ready to send that e-mail and as you quickly
glance it over, all of the sudden, you say, "Now, what's that in
the To field"?
Not the address you thought
you'd put there?
Ever notice that Outlook
is always suggesting an address as you start typing? Did you ever end
up with an unintended address, because you accidentally chose one of those
suggestions?
While many people
like the suggestions, not everyone does!
If you're in that
second group of people, then maybe you'd like to know how to tell Outlook
to keep its suggestions to itself.
Yes?
No problem.
We're looking for
the Tools menu, Options choice.
Now, we need the
Preferences tab, E-mail Options button.

Once in the E-mail
Options, we need the Advanced E-mail Options button.

At this point, you
need to uncheck the "Suggest names while
completing To, Cc and Bcc fields."

To complete the change,
simply click OK three times to back out into Outlook.
Voila! No more suggestions,
no more accidental addresses. Yes!
