Someone else mentioned that they found messages in the "Your Contacts" section that they had never received as emails. I decided to check, and, lo and behold, I had 2 dated October 22nd I have not received. Crista

No, nothing new. This has happened to me several times since I started using the site in Feb.

I wonder if everyone realises, that every time they send an email to someone through gc, the person automatically is added to your contact list.

I have had this happen to me before so I now make a point of checking my contacts every time I come on the site. Does it not drive you mad though when you get an Email to tell you who you have sent an Email to and what you wrote etc - you get all that in "your contacts" so why the copy Email??

Hi there, I have tried deleteing some of my contacts by clicking on to Delete Contact, but they are still there. Am I missing something? What else do I click onto to get rid of them, at this rate I will have hundreds of contacts that I do not need. Mary

Same here Mary,my contacts list is getting very long now.Is there a way to delete the contacts if "delete" doesn't work?.

When you click the delete button, you should get another page asking for confirmation. You need to click the Yes button to delete the contact. I agree, those copy emails are really confusing. "You have sent an email to ?????? about their tree" Duuh, I know I have

Hi there Carol, Thanks for the information, unfortunately when I click the delete button it just goes back to the home page. Don't know what else to do. Mary
