[QUOTE="Phoebe83, post: 1705424, member: 371620"] [b]Virus Mail Addressbook/contacts[/b] Thankyou for your reply. So I tried writing an email. I get what you mean. I tapped my dads email address and the name of a restaurant came up. Even though there is no connection in spelling at all John / Restaurant le Cabanon??? Very weird. I have checked in my contacts, it's not a question of an error of addresses in contacts. There do appear to be a group of favourite names in my contacts that are chosen, so it can't be totally arbitary. So if I address an email to John Smith of the 300 contacts only 15 seem to be chosen? And it will probably be either Ferdinand or Restaurant le Cabanon. Another email to Rupert Smith will have the same name attached? Ie John Smith will be assigned Ferdinand. Rupert Smith too. And me I virtually never come up as me? I will also be Ferdinand? My dad did got to the restaurant in question. There was an email connecting the two. Me as I am the sender to millions of emails there are millions of connections. My boss would be connected to Ferdinand, he was a client, there would originally have been a connecting email?? But like 9 years ago? The client in question has now died and gone to dead prospect heaven?! He is not someone I have been exchanging email with for 9 years. Lastly it doesn't happen if I go on Gmail or Yahoo? Sorry. Thankyou very much anyway. [/QUOTE]
