    Every time I respond to an email from someone, their address is added to my list of addresses. Can this be stopped?
    Also, how do I delete that unwanted address?
    Under Thunderbird and Outlook Express I seem to recall being able to right click on the address and the find a delete or remove option.
    There isn't one in the Vista Windows mail program.
    Thanks.

    Probably the same as in Outlook Express. The setting Automatically put people I reply to in my Address Book is found on the Send tab of Tools > Options in OE.

    Thanks Arie. I found it. Now to find a way to delete the automatically added ones...
    Or, for that matter, to delete or remove any of them.

    That's just a case of opening the address book & deleting them.

    Well, I finally found it. A tiny little icon that says contacts turns out to be the address book. I guess I wasn't looking too hard. Probably getting lazy.
    Thanks again Arie.

    Problem with Windows Live Mail is that this happens after the 3rd reply which I guess is good for those that you just answer something once. OE was immediatly.
