I accidentally typed in the wrong e-mail address when filling out a form and now Firefox remembers that e-mail address. How do I delete it from the history?

Next time that box and option comes up just highlight the option that is incorrect in the dropdown list and press the keyboard delete key. (Mac users: shift + del)
