While slowing down and paying more attention can help, turning off some of the convenience features built into email applications couldn’t hurt. In MS Outlook (2010 & 2013) go to File - Options - Mail - Send Messages and uncheck “Use Auto-Complete List to Suggest Names when Typing in the To, CC, and BCC Lines.” Then click on “Empty Auto Complete List”. Now you won’t be able to create a disaster in the blink of an eye. For Gmail you must delete individual contacts for them not to show up in AutoComplete, though you can go to Settings and choose to add contacts yourself instead of the default “When I send a message to a new person, add them to Other Contacts so that I can auto-complete to them next time.”
