How to delete one mis-spelled email address from auto-complete list

Anonymous

I previously mis-spelled an email address when sending a message .... and now, that mis-spelled address is displayed in the auto-complete list each time I begin to type the correct email address.

This is NOT an issue with my contact list ... I do not have a contact defined for this address.

I do have this option enabled:  Give suggestions for anyone I've communicated with (contacts and non-contacts) and I want to keep that option enabled. I realize that I could select this option: Only suggest people in my contact list, and the mis-spelled address would not appear in the auto-complete list .... but I want the auto-complete function to give suggestions from both contacts and non-contacts.

What I am looking for is the ability to delete one entry from the non-contact addresses that are maintained by the auto-complete feature. Can this be done in Outlook.com??

    Hi langware,

    I'm sorry, but that kind of feature is not currently available in Outlook. However, we forwarded your suggestion to the product group, who appreciates feedback and considers suggestions for a future releases.

    Thank you.

    Please tell me whether the product group has accepted this feedback and has given it high enough priority to actually work on implementing this suggestion, or if they have given this suggestion low priority and are not planning on implementing it.

    If you think that this feature would be of high importance, please try to visit our Feedbackarea where you can send your feature requests.

    I have already posted feedback using the link found within Outlook.com (I clicked the "gear" icon in Outlook.com, then clicked the "Feedback" item from the drop-down menu).

    If I use the Feedback link that you provided in your last post, will that just be redundant ... or will that feedback be sent to a different department?

    And regardless of how I provide feedback, I still would like this question answered:

    How do I get status on the feedback/suggestion that I have provided .... has the suggestion been accepted or rejected by the Product Group? If rejected, then why? If accepted, then is someone actively working on it, or is it at the bottom of a large queue of items?
