Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a system and method for processing sending information in a sending device. The method comprises receiving at least a fragment of a destination address/number to which information is to be sent; cross-referencing the address/number fragment with a database assigned to the user to see if the address/number matches an address/number saved for that user; and automatically caching the address/number in the user's database if it has not been previously saved. The system therefore comprises logic configured to receive at least a fragment of a destination address/number to which information is to be sent; logic configured to cross-reference the address/number fragment with a database assigned to the user to see if the address/number matches an address/number saved for that user; and logic configured to automatically cache the address/number in the user's database if it has not been previously saved.
