I'd like the recipient line to automatically list the addresses of used emails but it doesn't seem to do it in Outlook 2000.

Any suggestions?

To ENABLE AutoComplete Addressing in Outlook 2000.
In Outlook go to:

Tools \ Options
under Preferences tab, click E-mail options \ Advanced E-mail options
under 'When sending a message' make sure that "Automatic name checking"
is ticked.

Do you have your Contact list visible as an Address book?

right-click Contacts and go to properties. Click on the Outlook Address Book tab and make sure "Show this folder as an e-mail address book" is checked.

If that still doesn't work...you got me :)

Grr..

It's already clicked too.

The IT guys here also have no clue.

This is such a pain. My old PC did it automatically.
