[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1314646, member: 46727"] [CODE][/CODE]The "brute force" method is to go into your Mail Preferences, click on the "composing" tab and remove the check from "Automatically complete addresses". Of course that means all are gone not just the one you want to eliminate. Other than that, you can try moving the mail plist file to the desktop and see if that does it. Here is where it's located: /Users/your name/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist However, before you can do so, you will need to unhide your user library folder which by default is hidden in Lion. Do this: Open your terminal application and type the following: [CODE]chflags nohidden ~/Library/[/CODE] Leave terminal and open the Finder. The library folder should now be visible. [/QUOTE]
