Default Distribution List inserts old email addresses in email address lin


scmh;73789 Wrote:
Hello,

I understand how this is happening, however, I do not understand why
this is happening? Could anyone explain why this is doing this and why
it does not automatically update the autocomplete with the new
distribution list information and is there a different way around this
without deleting the entry out of the autocomplete?

-Thanks


The autocomplete list is flat list of addresses. Older ones will be
deleted when you hit 2000 addresses, but its not smart enough to see
that you have two with the same name and replace the new one with the
old one. It keeps both addresses and eventually the old one might age
off due to non-use.
