Windows Mail AutoComplete does not work

[Mr.Macroney]

Even after importing with the help on Easy Transfer on Windows XP with Service Pack 2 Outlook Express Mail and Contacts and also the Autocomplete being enabled, why is it not working I dont understand. Previously it used to work but not nothing happens. Can anyone tell me how do i rectify this problem. Thanks in advance.

Even I am facing the same problem, it will work sometimes but not everytime. I have also noted that for 3-4 days in Windows Mail the Autocomplete would work but soon after that we will lose it. It is becoming a major problem for many users. I have also heard that it will store only 25 recent address that we sent to in Windows Mail and not after that, so is it true? If so, then the only option would be to upgrade to Windows Live Mail.

Yes, even I am noticing that it will work only when you have used the address in an email only once, so there should be some kind of time limit. So, although by using the address after a couple of days it will again disappear from the autocomplete. I think that the auto-complete feature designed in Windows Mail is having some technical difficulties or lets say a bug which needs to be corrected. Better solution would be to upgrade to Windows Live Mail if this feature is important for us.
