Question Erase an automatically collected email address

[Bobo8112]

Good morning
I use a Honor smartphone
5C Android 7, with the @mail application installed in the factory.
I would like to know if there is a procedure to delete an email address that has been collected automatically.
THANKS

Welcome to AC!
What do you mean email address collected automatically? Multiple ones you set for different accounts?

 

[Bobo8112]

No, when someone send me a @mail, his address is automatically collected.
When I entered the first letters of this address, that is automatically displayed.
If I no longer need this address I want to be able to delete it as we can do in Thunderbird in the list of addresses collected.
I do not know if it is possible under Android because I do not find commands to do this.

THANKS

Try using the Contacts app to edit/manage your contact listing. Start up Contacts, scroll down to that address you want to delete, long press on it to highlight it, and in the upper menu bar tap on the Trash icon to delete it.
Different apps, like your email app, texting app, etc. all rely upon a central contacts database file. You can use the Contacts app to tweak that database file, and then your other apps index the altered database accordingly.

An alternative way to delete that address, if you keep up on syncing your phone's Google apps with your online Google account, you can also go to

Sign in - Google Accounts

and there's a more extensive page to add/delete/edit your contacts listing. Either way, the syncing process will make both your phone's contact list match your online contact list.
