Outlook Email - Deleting Wrong Email Entry when starting new email

That was quite stupid of me, of course that is the easiest way to check the version. Sorry. Sometimes we geeks think too complicated :).

OK, so you have Office 2010. I can only tell you that it works in Outlook 2010 exactly the same way as it works in 2013, the way I told you in my first post. I have Office 2010 installed on one virtual machine, tested it now and it works perfectly.

You might want first check that this wrong email address is not stored as a contact. If it is, remove the contact first, then start a new email, start typing the address, use arrow keys to select it and press DEL.

Yes, as mentioned in my OP, I deleted the redundant email address from the people's list. So now I don't get why it won't delete if you are saying it should. You are suggesting in this post what you said earlier and that is what I tried without success. Guess this has gone as far as it can. Thanks anyway.

I am sorry I am not unable to help you. I have tested this now several times both in Outlook 2010 and 2013, it works every time.

Thanks for trying anyway. Appreciated. :)
