How to delete email addresses from address book(?)

I want to clean-up/purge my address book of old/obsolete addresses. What I've been doing is deleting entries within each address, but that creates as many "no name" entries as the ones deleted. Is there a way to delete unwanted email addresses? Thanks.
Pete ((The Oldfella)

I don't understand the question... In particular, I'm not sure what you mean about how deleting e-mail addresses creates "no name entries". If you want to delete a contact, simply select it and choose Edit -> Delete Card (or just hit the delete key). If you want to remove an e-mail address while leaving the contact, select the contact, click the Edit button and then click the red '-' button next to the e-mail address.

  • How to  delete email attachments from server

    Hi,
    I created an a CF template for sending e-mail which includes
    attachments. It has been tested on my dev box and is functioning
    fine as the attachment upload to a designated directory on the
    server. I would like the attachments to be purged once the e-mail
    has been forwarded to the recipent.
    In Macromedia's ColdFuision 7MX web application construction
    book page 913 "Interacting with Email" there is a CFC that will
    delete the file when the user ends their session.
    I am not sure how to write this to fit the code I am using.

    The tutorial only explains how to delete the attachment when
    the recipient checks there mail
    in the POP server.
    Assuming that the sender is in a session would the code be
    written to delete the attached file from the directory on
    the server one the e-mail is sent.
    Can someone explain how to automatically delete email
    attachments from a designated directory or provide me with the code
    that would handle this after an email is sent with attachment.
    Thanks,
    Tony

    I don't know why your dos code didn't run. It could be
    addressing. My limited experience with cfdirectory/cffile/cfexecute
    is to type out the complete path at least once.
    Good books?
    Hard to say, depends on what else you are new at. If you are
    new to html, then htmlgoodies.com has good tutorials. So does
    webmonkey.com. If you have trouble with sql, I have heard good
    things about the SAMS book, Teach Yourself SQL in 10 Minutes by Ben
    Forta. I learned javascript by buying the book Teach Yourself
    Javascript in 24 Hours. The O'Reilly books are also good. I learned
    awk with one of those books.
    Glad you liked the fish pics. The camera is specified on most
    of the pages. If it says Reefmaster, I used an external strobe. If
    it says Sony I either used the camera flash only or natural light.
    By the way, that is not a Cold Fusion site. It's strictly html and
    javascript.

  • How to delete email only from iphone 4s

    How can I delete email from my iphone but not from my hotmail account?

    Not possible with an IMAP or Exchange account.
    If you are accessing your Hotmail account as a POP account with the iPhone's Mail app, deleting a received email from your iPhone should have no effect on the server. Not sure if Microsoft supports accessing a Hotmail account as a POP account.

  • How to delete unwanted addressee from address bar?

    When I want to send an e mail and want to type in the addressee in the address bar as soon as I type the first letter my addressee will appear in the address bar but so will others I did not put there.
    How can I delete the unwanted ones?

    Both applications are made by Mozilla.
    Thunderbird is the email application and Firefox is the Web browser application.
    In the future, I suggest posting Thunderbird email questions to the Thunderbird forums:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/products/thunderbird/get-community-support
    You begin typing an address and the auto-complete feature offers addresses that you would like to remove.
    Go to the Thunderbird Home screen and select '''Address Book''' at the top.
    Then select '''Collected Addresses''' on the left-hand side.
    Select the address you would like to remove and then click on '''Delete'''.
    Also check the '''Personal Address Book''' to make sure the address you want to remove is not listed there too.

  • How to delete emails permanently (from your hard drive)

    Hi there,
    I've been reading up a lot, but I did not find anything convincing, hence my post. I hope I can find some help here.
    I've been using mail with gmail (IMAP) for a couple of months, before switching to TBird. I've deleted my account in Mail, but for some reason, my emails remain accessible, for instance when I use spotlight. there is a folder mail in users/library/mail that seems to have all my emails (2.3gb which is also pretty much the size of my gmail account).
    can I safely delete the contents of this folder? Will it impair my ability to re-create a gmail account in mail, if needed?
    Best,
    Seb

    that folder should have been deleted when you deleted the gmail account. you can trash it by hand. it's safe to do so.

  • Delete email receipients from autocompletion

    Can you tell me how to delete email recipients from autocompletion. This is very problematic as I have unwanted emails in here.

    How bad do you want it? I found the only way to do this is to go to settings (General, Reset) and then to Reset all Content and Settings. Then when you restore, you must do as a new iPhone, not from a backup (because of course those same address are in the backup). You lose everything. As long as you have your contacts, calendars, bookmarks, etc... inputted in your computer, when you re-sync you just put it back. Although you will have to re-do things such as customized home screens, and the arrangement of bookmarks. And any SMS's will be deleted too.

  • How to delete emails on all devices simultaneously

    Cannot find the answer to my question and probably won't be able to ask using the correct terminology, but...
    I have a mac laptop, iphone, and ipad as well as a mobile me account. I also have three email accounts set up on each of these devices through the mail application (me.com, hotmail, and gmail)
    I am trying to figure out how to delete emails simultaneously from all devices when I delete it on one device. For example: I delete an email I read on my ipad from my hotmail account and want it it disappear from the inbox on my iphone and laptop. As it is now I have to delete messages separately from all devices... meaning I have to waste time reviewing messages I have already decided to throw away.
    Can anyone offer help on how to accomplish this.
    Thanks,
    Jason

    Actually, Yahoo is Imap (as is google).  but the point remains - if you are using a pop account, you need to delete the mail from each device.(pop is basically a one way system).  If you have an imap account, changes you make of one device are communicated to all your other devices.

  • How to delete EMAIL accounts

    I am using Nokia E72. could you please suggest how to delete EMAIL accounts from Mobile

    If the accounts have been set up with Nokia Messaging, then go to email.nokia.com, log in there with the details of the first account you set up, and then you can delete accounts you don't need.
    Once done when the phone next syncs it will remove them from the phone.
    If they are manually configured accounts, then on the phone, just go to Email->Settings-> scroll to the account -> Options -> Remove mailbox

  • Email address from address book on E72 and removin...

    Hi,
    I like my E72 but I have two problems that really annoy me.
    1. In the past when ever I would write a new email I would get list of suggested email addresses in the "To" field. For example, if I would was to write the letter S I would get the email address of the people in my address book whose name starts with an S (sam, Sofia etc).
    for some reason this feature stopped working on my phone and I can't find how to make it work again. if I want to send an email I need to manually write the email address in the "To" field.
    The auto suggestion feature works perfectly on my wife's phone (an E72 with the same firmware – 22.007) but on my phone it won't suggest email addresses from my contacts.
    2. Another problem is that my Gmail that is synced to the phone, through the Nokia Messenger server is locked on "hide emails older than 2 weeks". Now, I have hundreds of emails stored on my phone that dates to February 1st – the day I got the Phone!
    Is there a way to delete these emails automatically, without deleting them on the Gmail account itself? It makes my phone really when going through the emails.
    Thanks in advance,
    External

    Hullo all...
    I've fixed the problem with my email service on E72. The thing is, there's something wrong with the Nokia Messaging service. So I turned the service off. But you must remove the inbox properly, that is from the web site email/nokia.com, and manage your inbox from there and not from your cell phone.
    Remove it, and make a new settings on your E72 for your preferable mailbox. When they asked you about to accept or decline the Nokia Messaging service, declined it, and set your mailbox without using Nokia Messaging. Yes the e-mail doesn't instantly sent to your inbox, but you can set the timing to always enabled synchronization, and set it to every 5 minutes. It will delivered flawlessly to your E72, and you'll get a full control for your inbox and everything without being 'locked' by nokia messaging. You can decide how much email you'd like exactly in your inbox, sent, etc. You can decide the period and everything. The device are fully functional and do very well job in maintaining email, but not Nokia Messaging. (Nokia Messaging Team, please take a serious action.)
    This step will also fix your problem on email address from address book on E72. I don't really know what the connection between them, but it seems that it needs to connect to the internet to make this feature enabled. (it's kind of strange since the email in the address book is in the phone memory, not in the 'cloud' server). It sometimes happen if you don't have the internet connection, but once you had it, the problem solved.
    I hope this will fix your problem. Let me know

    Mike,
    Are any of your other applications going wonky, or is it just Logic?
    I'm afraid I've never heard of this particular problem before, but if it were happening to me the first thing I would do is delete my "com.apple.logic.express.plist" file in Library>Preferences, then repair permissions in Disc Utility, and finally restart my computer.  Then I would launch Logic and see if the problem has been corrected.  It's amazing how much these two steps can accomplish.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue I would launch Logic and go to Preferences>Audio Units Manager to see if all my plug-ins are properly validated.

    The history option is the little clock icon at the bottom of the Bookmarks menu - the icon in the center between the open book and the eye glasses icons. You don't have that? Try closing Safari and see if the history option comes back
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You can also clear the history in Settings>Safari>Clear History.

    Email addresses that are not in your Contacts app but which still show up in Mail will disappear after a period of time when they are unused. Just ignore them and they will eventually go away.
