I have a user to uses AutoComplete to send ALL emails.  It has stopped
"suggesting" a couple of times - why?
Roady [MVP] - 14 Oct 2004 13:48 GMT
The autocomplete only works on previously used addresses as it is a cache
and not an actual autocomplete.

I understand that - but, this user completely relies on the autocomplete to
send ALL emails - yes, I know, I've told him this is not the purpose of it
and that he needs to save his email addresses in Contacts.  So, why would the
autocomplete just stop "suggesting" at random?  Is there maybe a limit to the
cache?  This has happened twice before and he's had to type all email address
out completely again before it would then "suggest".
Thank You Roady!!

So when you hit 1000, does the list clear itself?  I am having the same
problem with a few of my users.

No.  It's a FIFO list and you already posted this question in the thread
entitled "auto complete not working", so stick to that thread.
