I use Entourage for my email program and when I make a new message and type a the first letter of the person I am sending the email to, I get a list of names and email addresses, which is what I want, but I notice that the list includes people who are NOT in my address book. There are email addresses from spam and other emails I get from people. Is there anyway to delete these?
Thanks

To clear ALL there is a preference in Mail & News: Compose: Clear List button. There is also an option in the prefs to disable this feature all together.
Unfortunately, you can't go in and selectively edit the list. Or tell it to only use addresses from your address book.
To clear a single address, add it exactly like the one that is remembered to your address book and mark it as Junk (or assign category Junk). You can just delete the address, but if you receive it again it will just be added back. Marking as junk will permanently remove it.

Sorry, I forgot to mention I am using Office 2001, and I don't see that option under the Mial & News: Compose preference.
Any other ideas?

If you hold down Option when opening Entourage it will ask if you want to rebuild the database. This should do what you want.
Here is some more info...
