    delete contact


    How can I delete a contact from Gmail so I am never tempted to contact them again?

    When on any Google site (IE: Gmail, Photos, Maps, etc) click the grid by your profile picture. Then choose Contacts. Find the contact, and delete it.

    Once in contacts, as above, use the three dots to the right and select delete.

    Sorry I was unclear. I haven't got any contacts. What I meant was how do I delete an email correspondent so that when I click on "Compose" their name cannot appear.

    No name or email address should appear automatically unless they are on your contact list or you are replying to them. Are you saying if you 'Compose' then click to and type 'Al' that Alice or Alan will auto appear. Otherwise, show a screenshot of what your complaint is.

    I click "Compose" and put in one letter and then it comes up with all the people starting with that letter.

    I did it by Contacts/Frequently contacted/Delete

    For gmail, follow the directions in post #2/ #3 to either delete all Contacts or just the ones you don't want to appear

    Your browser will remember that previously filled in form data if you allow it to do so. Has zero to do with the google website linked.
