I just installed Outlook 2011 for Mac and transferred my Outlook file from Windows Outlook 2010.  I'm having a problem with the suggested email addresses that pop up every time I send an email (“Contacts and Recent Addresses").  This list seems to be generated from every person or company I've received emails from, not ones I’ve sent an email to.  I thought this list was only supposed to be those email addresses I've sent emails to.  The list is bogged down with addresses I would never send an email to (i.e. Businesses, newsletters, etc.) and I keep deleting them by clicking the X next to the address, but when I receive a new email from them it goes back on the suggested list.  It makes it difficult to quickly find the address of the person I’m looking for.  I tried rebuilding the database as suggested on another forum and got an error saying the database cannot be rebuilt, but when I created a new identity I had the same problem.  Any suggestions?
