Clearing out the link suggestion pulldown
When I compose an email and click to add a link, the link box has a pulldown that suggests earlier links. I'd like to clear it out.
In case it's relevant, here's why: it seems to have reached some kind of maximum, where it doesn't take in new information. It will suggest filling in with a link I used two years ago. But a link that I more recently started to use with some frequency doesn't get remembered. I have to go look it up and paste it in every time.
I'd like to clear those link suggestions without clearing Tbird's entire cache. Is there a way for me to do that?

Under Tools/Clear Recent History... you can select Browsing History and Everything to clear the URLs that appear in the Insert/Link dialog. When you add a new URL, it doesn't appear as a link suggestion unless you actually visit the link. I would have assumed Browsing History was the list of URLs visited when you click a link in a received message, and this would be separate from the URLs inserted in composed messages. I think the history is stored in places.sqlite, but I can't find a full description of this file.

I'm giving this a bump, phrasing this much more succinctly: where is the cache for Thunderbird's link autofill pulldown?
Hope you can help. Thanks!
So simple! Thanks so much!
