MSO 2003 Outlook - recognizing email addresses when typing
I have a Dell with MSO2003. The entries in the contact lists are present.
When I open up Outlook and go to send a message, I start typing the email address joe.blow@somewhere.com. In Outlook 2000, outlook would recognize and select the full addresses that met the typed letters starting with "jo". Outlook 2003 is not doing this. I have to type the whole address.
Is there a switch somewhere that causes the typing recognition as before?

Tools, Options, Preferences tab. Click the Email Options button, click the Advanced Email Options button, and place a check in the Suggest names while completing To, Cc, and Bcc fields. Online help....
You may want to look at the Automatic Name Checking feature. According to online help....

Do you know how is this done in OL 2000? The suggesting names bit is not in the Advanced e-mail options. I had reinstalled OL2000 and can't figure out how to get this feature working again.
