   An email address with a domain literal like your example =
(email{at}[123.123.123.123]) still gets delivered to your SMTP server.  It =
is your overloaded email server's responsiblity to route this.  Or maybe =
you simply don't know how to enter an address containing special =
characters.  In this case it would be [smtp:email{at}\[123.123.123.123\]].

   In regard to deleting your now out of date favorite, did you try =
pressing the delete key when the name appears as you type?  It appears = not.

   You sure do like to complain alot.  If you don't know how to do =
something you might consider an alternative.  It's a pretty popular one. =
 Ask.

  I have not been able to get Outlook to send an email to=20

     email{at}[123.123.123.123]=20

  where 123.123.123.123 is the IP address of a email server, and 'email'
  is a valid email account on that server.  I believe this is an RFC
  requirement, just like proper SMTP handling.

  Also, I keep nicknames for my friends.  For example, I use bob-w for =
Bob
  at work, Bob-h for Bob at home.  Well, Bob changed jobs, so I changed
  the email address for Bob-w in the address book to his new email
  address.  Unfortunately, Outlook also stores the email address =
somewhere
  else, and insists on sending Bob-w emails to his old email address. =
I've
  not found the other location in the address book or configuration
  options yet.  I now have a NewBob-w entry in the address book to work
  around this feature.
