Auto Fill contact list lost

When I close down Outlook 2003 and restart the program, I loose all my
autofill contact names.  As long as the program is open it will save the
contact names I used that day.  But once the program is closed the list is
cleared and I have to start over again by going back to my address book to
fill in the names and build a new list.  How do I fix this so the names in
that autofill file are not dumped when the program is closed?

This is a sign of a disconnection between the mail profile and the
autocompletion cache.  A new mail profile should cure the problem.  If you
wish to reuse the existing cache, rename it to match the name of your new
mail profile.  A complete description of the feature can be found here:
