When composing an email, and I type in the first letter or two of the recipient, a history comes up and contains unwanted, incorrect or undesired email addresses that are NOT in my address book. How do I clean them up so only the desired contacts are shown? I cannot find a way to delete these. Thank you...it drives me nuts!

الحل المُختار

All suggestions ARE in your address books. You have at least 2 default books. The personal and the collected books. You will have to find them in the books and fix or delete them.

Why two default address books?

Because they designed it that way. The personal book for your main book and the collected book to collect your outgoing contacts.
