allow deletion of autofill contacts. it is dangerous to have no way of deleting old email contacts in the autofill feature.
i need to be able to delete incorrect old email addresses from the autofill list. i have sent confidential stuff to a person's old company.

Old contacts that I never use anymore keep popping up in big bubbles as suggested contacts...very frustrating. They are not in my people list, they were one time contacts to a business. I want to get rid of them but am unable! Very frustrating/annoying.

on the app autofilled email addresses stay there unless you totally re install. this is dangerous as it means that if you contact someone it may pick up their old email address. there needs to be an android app feature that allows you to delete old email addresses from the app so that they dont autofill.

Why is this such a difficult fox for Microsoft? Please just do it.

I have an incorrectly spelled email address for one of my contacts that appears through auto fill if I accidentally start to type the address by transposing the first 2 letters of the address. At this time the Help Desk informed me that there is no way to remove this incorrect address from the cache on my mobile device since the incorrect address does appear in my Contacts list and just appears in auto fill. Please add the capability to remove an address that is not in Contacts.

different from Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Android does not have any possibility to permanently delete an unwanted autocomplete address, unless the App is uninstalled and reinstalled. Addresses of spam emails keep being suggested , this is dangerous.

Enable users to empty the cache to remove deleted email contacts that no longer are needed or wanted..suggested contacts permanently appear even though they are deleted in the address book and contacts on all other devices..its frustrating and can cause issues in relationships when ex bf/gf address still appears!

allow user to delete suggested emails, especially when they are so similar to other contacts. sending personal information to random people is a security issue. I send myself emails to myself but they are going to the wrong person using your autocomple/suggestion feature. I cannot delete the incorrect email and it keeps popping up on the app even after I delete it using the empty auto comete list feature using the computer.

The auto-fill in the "to" field when composing an email is incredibly annoying as this seems to automatically fill from every single previously used address even if not in the contacts list or address book. This auto-fills addresses that are either unwanted or incorrect, and has today resulted in great embarrassment and inconvenience. If for some obscure reason you cannot or will not allow deletion of unwanted addresses, at least you could enable us to switch off the auto-fill feature completely.

i can do this on the desktop version of outlook and its a brilliant feature. so fed up having to scroll past old unused addresses on the mobile version

Plus opening a spam email not suspected to be spam often has a variation of my own email address. Then when trying to copy myself on an email the list shown has my email address along with the spam variations.

The autofill feature does NOT currently work: it suggests frequently used emails last and the least used emails first. This is really a bug - not a feature request.
