After the latest update 31.3.0 the auto fill for email address is not working. It doesn't care what letter I type I just get a random list of names. Example I enter a T and the first name on the list starts with a L.

Not a good thing. Dennis

Keep typing. It now recognizes strings within email addresses and so can match any part of the name or address, or, indeed, the nickname.

Well that is nice but before all I only had to enter in the first letter and I get a list starting with the first letter and usually the person I need is right there now I have to keep typing? This is not a upgrade in my opinion. IS there an option to just list starting with the first letter? IF not there should be. Is there a way to go back to the last version? There is an old saying in engineering, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." I get a little of programers over working a product that works great all ready don't screw with the interface unless you make it a choice for the user. Adobe does this all the time I have to relearn the interface each time a programing has a bright idea. Dennis
