Steps to reproduce:
Updated a typo in an email address.
ssffXXX@gmail.com - was corrected to:
ssfXXX@gmail.com - (There was two "f" characters instead of one)
Note: (For privacy reasons the "XXX" are not the true remaining letters in the email address in question)
Actual results:
In my address book I have corrected a spelling typo in the address for a contact. The address book shows the correct address now, but when I drag the contact to an email to send, the address is the one with the original typo and my email returns as non deliverable..
Expected results:
The corrected address should be put in the address bar, not the one with a typo.

Are you dragging the address from the addressbook window? Or from the contact sidebar of the compose window?
Duplicate bug?
Wayne,
I am dragging from the address book window. Another funny thing is, even if I delete the contact and re-enter it correctly the program still enters the old misspelled email address.
Thanks,
Woody

Wayne is right, I could swear we've seen this before... (apart from the known fact that autocomplete is stubborn)

Woody, can you please try this:
- Open Address Book (Ctrl+Shift+B from main window)
- Select "All address books" on the left
- In the search box (right top), search for
ssf
- How many contacts are found?
- Check primary and additional email address of all found contacts
