You mean turn off email autocomplete entirely or remove the autocomplete property?

If you mean the latter, then it doesn't work very well because both the custom autocomplete and the browser's autocomplete menus show up. When the browser's menu is up, the custom menu doesn't function.

I see a few options:
1. Go back to using browser extensions to enable autocomplete.
2. Use browser extensions to disable the custom autocomplete.
3. Add a new attribute that disables to browser autocomplete dropdown, but not formfill on page load.

If someone is willing to do the work, 3 seems best since this it's likely other web developers will want it.
