Hi Jackie,
I wonder if Live mail is taking details from live messenger in regards to
hidden contacts? If Skype can do this for Outlook, then perhaps Live mail is
going online and grabbing  those from Live Messenger. Just a thought.

Hi Dave

By and large, I don't mind Windows Mail, Vista's fancy name for Outlook
Express.  The only thing I still can't puzzle is the fact you can do a
control N to begin a new Email, and type in the first few letters of
someone's address or name.  Whether you have their contact in your address
book or not, Vista remembers it and completes it for you in the To field. 
Now I have the box checked in Windows Mail or Outlook Express to complete
addresses, but I find it strange that it remembers those that aren't in the
book, as well as those that are.

Logically then, Vista is storing stuff somewhere for it to remember every
detail, and I want to know how to access that backup or hidden area so I can
clean it out now and then.

I also like the way in Windows Mail that you are told when a message comes
in and is being deposited to your Junk folder.  It brings up a message
telling you to check your Junk folder regularly.  It is random though what
it decides is junk, because you can get messages from this list going in
there that have the same subject line as those going into Inbox in the
normal way.  Not sure how Vista determines what's junk, but, ho-hum!
