How do I remove an email address MAIL suggests?

Hi Forum.
silly question. A friend has changed his email address. I have changed it in my address book.
However when I compose a new mail and start to type the name of my friend, the OLD email address appears in a drop down list as much as the NEW address. How can I make it so that the OLD address wont show anymore? Sillylie enough the old address is listed first so I always end up sending mail to the wrong address.
The old address is not in any part of my address book.
Where is MAIL getting the address from and can I stop it showing the old address?
Thanks
the wumpus

Go to Mail's Window menu and select Previous Recipients. Seek and destroy.

  • How do I remove an email address from the imessge in settings?

    When i sent an imessage to one of my contacts who is also an owner of the iphone, she says that I am sometimes sending it via email.  I went into settings and then to messages and I have 2 addresses, one of them is my email address.  I now want to remove my email address as it  seems to be causing me problems.  How do I remove my email address?  I am aware that i touch "Receive At" which has 2 addresses, but I am wanting to remove the email address but nothing is happening.  Help!

    You're welcome.
    If that email address is your Apple ID, I don't believe you can delete it.
    If you have your cell phone number selected as your Caller ID, when sending an iMessage it will be sent from your phone number.
    Since your Apple ID email address is registered as well, if someone has your email address in their contacts, they can select your email address to send you an iMessage in addition to your phone number.
    When this recipient says you are sometimes sending an iMessage via email, it is received as an email with the Mail app on their iPhone, not with the Messages app?

  • How can I remove my email address from the lock screen?

    How do I remove my email address from the lock screen? My dad bought me a new laptop after mine was stolen from my house on New Year's Eve. I'm a little tighter on my security now and when I turn on my laptop the lock screen shows me my name and my email
    address. If my laptop gets stolen again, I don't want my email address to be displayed for someone to use or sell as I'm extremely picky about what I'm giving out my email for. If there isn't a way to hide my email address, I'm going to demand a "downgrade"
    from this Windows 8 s**t and back to the more user-friendly and less confusing Windows 7. (And for the record, I hate Windows 8. With a passion.)

    How do I remove an email address that is no longer vaild for the iTunes Store or my iPhone?  A really old email address keeps popping up on my iPhone, the email address is not valid and I have no idea what the password was.  It's been over two years.

    Hello tcnolen1,
    It sounds like you are trying to change the Apple ID logged into the iTunes & App Stores on your iPhone.  Use these steps:
    Changing your Apple ID account
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
    Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID.
    You can find the full article here:

  • How do i remove an email address that is not connected to a contact

    How do I remove an email address that I used once and it keeps popping up when I try to send an email that starts with the first letter of that email addy I used one time?

    The only way to remove those email addresses is to do a factory restore of the phone which wipes all data. In my opinion, easier to live with the address.

  • How can I remove an email address from one apple account and associate it with another?

    I created an appleID account to use with the mac AppStore without realising i previously had an appleID account from my first iPod touch.
    Now with OSX 10.8 I want to use the email address from the old account with the new account for Messages.app without having to manage 2 logins.
    I've followed the steps found on the support page http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68 under the section "How to add an additional email address that is already associated with another Apple ID" but each time I attempt to add the removed email address from the new account to the old account the input box shows the error: Email address is already verified for another Apple ID.

  • How can I remove a email address from my mail from window

    Everytime I go and send an email from maverick mail the window from (thats me) has a misspelt address in it and my email often chooses this hence it wont send. I can send this mail by dropping the window down and choosing the rite address i.e. FROM.
    I want to remove this address but I can not find it in accounts or on iCloud.
    Help needed
    Morgan

    I am saying instead of manually having to type in your various emails which result in a list popping up including your error-
    You need to create a list of emails you use. Therfore you do not have to type everytime you go to send a email,  you just choose your correct email from the drop down menu. Simply click of the mouse.
    I see now the correct path should read:
    Mail>Preference>Accounts>Accounts information>>Email Address
    I am suggesting this is the easiest way of dealing with the problem and why would you not already have your list of emails at hand in the drop down menu for ease of work flow.
    You maybe able to route out the cache file if you prefer, and delete:
    The following resource outlines where the cache folder is stored. Note that the Library folder is hidden by default in OS X Mavericks. To access this folder, hold down option when clicking the Go menu in Finder:
    OS X Mavericks: What is the Library folder?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14330
    Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1199
    If the issue does not appear to be related to preferences, a login item, or a kext file, and still persists in Safe Mode, there may be an issue with a cache file in your home folder:
    1. From the Finder's Go menu, choose Home.
    2. Open the Library folder.
    3. Drag the Caches folder to the desktop.
    4. Attempt to reproduce the issue.
    5. If issue is resolved, drag the Caches folder to the Trash.
    6. If issue persists, from the Finder's Go menu, choose Go To Folder.
    7. Go to this folder: /Library
    8. Drag the Caches folder to the desktop.
    9. Attempt to reproduce the issue.
    10. If issue is resolved, drag the Caches folder to the Trash.
    11. If issue persists, go to step 4.

  • How can I remove an email address once it's been used?

    Once upon a time, I hit "reply all" to an email sent by a friend. This email had 97 addressees, and now they're in my Mail program. Only about eight of them are people I know. When I sent individual emails to crowdfund recently, I accidentally sent to some of these people, and my friend thought I'd hacked his account. I'd like to see them gone.
    In older versions of the OS, I was able to remove email addresses I no longer wanted; now, if I can, I don't know how. There are other addresses I'd like to remove, too. Can someone advise me?

    Zyxomma,
    Open Mail>Window>Previous Recipients> click on the unwanted email addresses, and use "Remove From List."

  • How do I remove an email address from an account?

    Every time I turn my iphone off and on again, it asks me to log into icloud and other apps that I set up with an old email address.

However, when I go into my itunes account, it doesn't say anything about my old email address still being on there. How do I remove my old email from icloud without losing my apps or my current itunes account details?

  • How do I remove an email address from a workflow notification?

    Hi, I was wondering if you could help me please. Can you tell me how to remove an old email address from a workflow notification? The person's name and email address have already been removed from the list of Users in the Admin area, but some workflow notifications are still being sent to their email. Any ideas?
    Many thanks for your help.

    Thanks Liam, I'd previously looked at the also notify field and it didn't show any other email addresses. This time I clicked on the second of my two options in the Workflow Steps field, and then clicked back on the first one  again, and hey presto, two email addresses appeared! The offending email address has now been removed.
    Thanks again for your help. Cheers!
