Deleting Outlook cached address on Office 365
Well, you can technically clear entries from the OWA cache via EWS, Michel has a script about it here: https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/office/Clearing-AutoComplete-and-92b8d32a#content
Problem is the script will scrap the entire cache, and in your case that's a bit excessive. But you can modify the script to just delete that one entry I guess.

Thanks for your updates.
Can I ask, does the PS script clear specific users caches? Or everyone on my tenancy? I'm not to great with Powershell I'm afraid so thought I'd ask.

Yup, clears the entire contents of the cache for specific user, not just select entries. And I'm afraid just knowledge in PowerShell is not enough for this one, you also need to have some experience with EWS if you want to modify it.

Hey Nick Inglis,
It looks like you specify the mailbox to clear, here is an example of the call:
Remove-AutoComplete.ps1 -Mailbox olrik@office365tenant.com -Credentials $Credentials
But as my friend VasilMichev mentions, just be sure you understand this will delete ALL saved auto completes, not just the incorrect one.
