Contact card info & notes show in emails

With recent changes, I see that when I send an email A LOT of information goes to the recipient…everything I have on the contacts card (which might be notes about the person) plus as the sender my phone number and alternate emails go. How do I stop this?

Where can i send an email request for change? Contacts: Notes can be updated WITHOUT selecting EDIT. As a retired computer programmer/analyst, I find this a very sloppy and dangerous practice. I have lost a lot of data simply by scrolling to read my notes and not watching 2 places at once. I could not hit cancel since i had not hit edit! PLEASE FIX THIS ERROR.

remove from recents in email Hello My question may or may not be related to the one at the bottom of my post: How come one email address has the blue letter "I" in the circle allowing me to remove from recents, but other email (from external addresses) do not and I cannot remove them? There is a right arrow and it does nothing when I tap on it. I don't need these addresses anymore as they relate to a past job interview I had - they were never my contacts - or maybe because we replied back and forth but I never added them to my contacts app. Please see screenshots from my phone. I'd like to remove them (Cynthia and Jasmine). Thank you. How do I remove an email address that is … - Apple Community [Image Edited by Moderator to Remove Personal Information]

Hello LHO13,

The information you are viewing comes from your own contact information and does not send to the receiver. This is for quick access to contact information from within the Mail app.

We hope this helps out.

Take care.
