Email Address Completion in Outlook Express

Hi again,
I got an email today asking why address completion had disappeared from Outlook Express. Apparently, the person was writing an email, and when entering the address, the address wasn't completed after a few characters were typed. This is how you can set this up:

1. In the main toolbar of Outlook Express, choose Tools > Options.
   
   The Options dialog box opens.


2. Click the Send tab.


3. In the Send tab of the dialog box, check the box entitled "Automatically complete e-mail addresses while composing."


4. Click Apply then OK.


5. You might have to restart Outlook Express for the changes to take effect.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

New Blog

Hi,

I've been wanting to do this for a while now. I already have one blog: James' Blog, and with all the reductions in force (RIF happening at my company (Sun Microsystems), I'm afraid to lose my blog eventually. So, I'll be picking the most helpful blog entries from that blog and writing some new ones. The goal of this blog is to help people perform tasks on their computer, whether they use Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux.

See you tomorrow with the next entry.
