    E-mail address autocomplete list, where?

    Hello,



    I need to clean the e-mail autocomplete address list, you know every time you write an e-mail the phone suggests an address. Like the grey "pop-up" (actually, pop-below), but that is the list I need to clean/delete - So where is it? or how do I clean that
    list?



    BR

    Deleting BBC e-mail addresses

    I have a Windows 7 HTC Radar phone.

    Someone sent an e-mail to my Road Runner inbox with 50 BCC addresses.

    When I go to send an e-mail now and type the first letter, they now show as possible suggestions on who to e-mail.

    How do I remove these so I don't have to cull through to find the people I have listed as my contacts-which is just 12-13.

    None of these BCC names are listed in my Hotmail, Outlook, Road Runner, or Windows Live Contact lists on PC

    Thanks for any help in advance.

    Inadvertently changed an e-mail address - want to delete it

    Windows 10 Mail 'Outlook' account email address is wrong, how do I correct since I can not delete it?

    I inadvertently used my standard e-mail addressed (attached to my domain name) as my Outlook.com identity when creating Windows 10 e-mail.

    To free that e-mail address (for use on calendar, etc.), can I do the following:

    • Switch from Microsoft.com login to local login, then
    • Delete the Outlook.com account in my Windows e-mail, then
    • Switch to Microsoft.com login, this time using a different alias that doesn't match my standard e-mail address?
    If that will work, will Windows automatically change all necessary syncs to the new login id?

    Thanks!

    Tim
