An even better hidden gem in Notes 8.5.2

Why the hell would I want to email THAT guy anyway? After much gnashing of the teeth and bearing of the claws over this item since Notes 8.0, IBM has finally added "Delete" to the context menu in the Mail address type-ahead. This is an excellent way to purge email addresses that you know are defunct.

In fact, I'd very much appreciate it if you'd take a moment and do this for me by removing my old lotus911.com address!

Unfortunately, the process displays a rather annoying confirmation dialog, but it's still a huge improvement over the old technique of going to the recent contacts list, finding the entry, pressing delete, throwing some chicken bones, chanting "there's no place like 127.0.0.1" three times, and then rubbing your armpits vigorously.  At least I think that was the old way to remove an automatically added contact.

Enjoy!
