Starting today, some Yahoo e-mail addresses I've written to started showing up in my Contacts list.
When I tried to delete one, message said:
"Cannot delete contacts from read-only accounts, but you can hide them in your contacts lists."
Huh?
How do I stop these from appearing and how do I delete them?
Thanks.
