Get 2 autofill suggestions. One has wrong spelling in the address. I checked on contacts, the spelling for My Card was correct. I deleted it and reentered my info. but still get the same 2 suggestions. I want to delete the wrong one. In the past, one could simply press delete. This problem is on my MacBook Air. I have no problem with my iPhone or iPad even on the same website. How to delete the incorrect one?
MacBook Air (2018 – 2020)
This isn't within your Mail settings. This is an autofill feature for My Card - Set up your My Card in Contacts on Mac - Apple Support. The Mail setting will only prevent it from being autofilled when you're trying to enter a recipient within the Mail app.
My Card is basically your own contact card that will autofill with the information you provide.
Look within the Contacts app and see if you have two entries for your name. If not, look within My Card (within Contacts), and verify all the information in there is accurate.
If it's not your My Card, please follow - Change AutoFill settings in Safari on Mac - Apple Support.
Make sure the entry is correct within there too!

The top suggestion has an incorrect address. I do not know where it comes from nor how to get rid of it. If I am in a hurry or forget which one is correct, I sometimes submit the wrong address. Only happens on my MacBook Air. Does not happen on my iPhone or iPad.

As I stated previously, look in Mail, Window menu, Previous Recipients.
I mentioned that above and they said it didn't work🤔 The only other option I can see is the Shipping Address within Settings.
Under Shipping Address is everything correct there? Delete what is not needed and edit what needs to be changed.

I had done all of the above. Only one contact for me. Correct address info. for me. The Safari Autofill switch is set for Contacts. (I have switched this on and off a few times too. It is set for using my Contact and bring up my correct card after clicking on <edit>. However, in Contacts, I selected my contact which there was only one and the address was correct. I deleted it and made a new contact card for me, double checked my address which is correct, went to <card> <make this my card> and selected it. The <make this my card> is now grayed out. I did this because there is no My Card option underneath the <All Contact> option in the upper left of the Contacts screen like there has been in the past. Still is isn't there.
In the screenshot you shared above, there is a Customize button that'll pull up a menu to edit the autofills its showing there.
If the above didn't work, I'd recommend hitting that Customize button and editing the options manually.
I thought it was a recipient.
In Mail Settings, Accounts, select your account, then Server Settings tab. From the Outgoing mail server, select Edit SMTP list.
Are there two entries for your email account?
When I select the customize, it shows only my contact card with has the correct address. I cannot edit or delete the one with the incorrect address. I guess I will just select customize when on my MacBook Air. Years ago when this would happen, one could highlight any and hit the delete button and it would be gone. I still wonder why the dropdown is correct when using my iPhone or iPad but not on my laptop. Oh well, thanks.
If you are talking about Mail, look for the wrong one in Window menu > Previous Recipients
Sorry, I neglected to say that I did that and removed the "Timothy" but it still does what I showed in the screenshot above.
The problem I had was for autofilling of forms. I did check the your suggestion though and only okay. Thanks.
Did you look in Safari Settings, Autofill, User names and Passwords > Edit.
The payment and shipping address is correct.
How delete incorrect autofill suggestion.
