Issue: Addresses in the [To] field prepopulate with old contact address... for example, I may have an old email address for the same person as choices... I need to get rid of the incorrect/old contacts address and only keep the most current. The old contact addresses do NOT display in my address book.

Could it be that the contacts - in the [To] dropdown line - are populating based on frequency of use? How do we get of rid of the incorrect contact addresses that are prepopulating in the [To] dropdown???

All contact suggestions come from your address books. You have 2 books by default. The Personal and the Collected address books.
