Works in 2007, 2010 and 2013. I'm still with you on this one.

JayGee your method works too. You must complete the email (actually sending) before the deletion takes effect. When I tried I created an email, entered my sons name and 2 entries came up. His yahoo account and his cell phone for text. I didnt want to send an email so I deleted the email address and closed the mail. Went back in and it was still there. I actually sent an email to myself (same email) after deleting the delete takes place.

Some of the email addresses that come up are not even in my address book.

Here is the right answer.

The dropdown list does not look at your contacts list. It only views previously entered email addresses. Dont believe me? Open mail and enter an address from your contacts list rarely or never used. It wont show up.

I just went thru the same thing a week or so ago.

Copy and paste this command into the Start/Run box and hit enter or click OK.

cmd /k reg delete "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows Mail\Recently Used Addresses" /f

Here is the Microsoft statement if you are uncomfortable with mine. :)

The command will delete all the items from the dropdown even ones you may want to keep but there is no other way. You will get the preferred ones back as you use your email.

Trying to delete them in the list does not work.

If I read you question correctly, when you select a letter such as "F" a number of email addresses appear some of which you do not want to use. Simply put the arrow on the one you want and left click. The rest will disappear. You state some of them you want to "get rid of". I take that to mean you do not want to use them. Some email addresses may appear even though you do not have them in your address book. Just ignore them.
