Hi,
 I have added some contacts in Outlook 2003. Autocomplete is not working
when I compose a new message. I have configured 2 POP3 Accounts and 1 HTTP
account in Outlook. Outlook is not showing contacts under the Personal
Folders (like, Inbox, Sent Items or Drafts). Please help me.

Thanks and Regards,
Renjith R Nair

Renjith,

Autocomplete data is stored in a file called an NK2 file.  It is NOT stored
in any contact folders.  The NK2 file is populated with outgoing e-mail
names and addresses.  Try typing a name in the To:  box and send an e-mail.
Then open a new e-mail and start to type that same recipient's name.
Outlook should auto suggest the remainder of that recipient's name.  We have
some tips and tricks on how to populate the NK2 file from information in
your contacts folder.  You can contact me through our website at
www.dcs-imaging.com and I can provide you with more info. on this function
if you desire.

I hope this anwered your question.
