Windows 10: Errors with Outlook Auto Complete

Over the last 2 -3 days, emails sent to a group of people are received OK but the display in the To field of the copy I have on my Sent folder and the display on the recipients To field in the received email is wrong.
For example, I send an email and Auto Complete fills in -
John <L: [email protected]>; Bill <L: [email protected]; Joan <L: [email protected]>
John, Bill and Joan all get the email but in their version of it, in the To field, it reads John <L: [email protected]>;
Mary <L: [email protected]> and Fred <L: [email protected] address3>
My copy in the Sent folder has the same thing in the To field,

John, Bill and Joan all get the email but Mary and Fred (who are listed in my Autocomplete file) do not, so could be worse!!

All 5 people's addresses are in my AutoCompete file Stream_Autocomplete ....... dat and are correct.
I have looked at the file using NK2Edit (the updated version that works with the latest Outlook and Windows). I have deleted the original file and created a new one. But while addresses are correctly Autocompleted, the display in the To field after sending is corrupted as above.

how do you delete an auto added email in Win 10 mail

Hi Larry,

Outlook builds the Auto-Complete List by saving the names and addresses of recipients in email messages you've previously sent. As the list grows, so does the number of suggestions that are offered as possible entries. You can trim the list by removing one
or more recipients, or you can turn off Auto-Complete List completely. To do so, you may follow instructed steps from this link:
Remove addresses from AutoSuggest/Auto-Complete

Auto Suggest - Old email addresses

Hello,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand your concern. There is, however, no setting in Mail app to disable the auto-complete setting, you can certainly accomplish this in Outlook web app on your system. Refer to the following steps to do so:

• Sign in to Outlook Web App, and in the To, Cc, or
  Bcc lines, start typing part of the name you want to remove from the Auto-Complete List. For information about how to sign in to Outlook Web App, see
  
  Sign in to Outlook Web App.
  
  
• If the entry you want to remove is highlighted, choose Delete. If the entry you want to delete is not selected, use the Up Arrow and Down Arrow to navigate to the entry you want to delete, and then choose
  Delete.

For more information, please refer to the following article:

from the Auto-Complete List in Outlook Web App

How do I delete an address in the Auto-Complete List?

On Mail App, the Auto-Complete List displays suggestions for names and email addresses as you start to type in the To, Cc, and Bcc boxes. These suggestions are derived from names and email addresses that you have typed before.
