Two of my contacts have changed there email addresses, and I updated it in contacts, however as I begin to type there email in the "To" section I get a list of emails addresses popping up including the ones I deleted from my contacts. I assume they are coming from some kind of cache, but have not found a way to delete those emails that pop up. It's a nice feature, but if the emails are not correct it really does not help.
I've often wondered why some email addresses had no blue circle. Thanks for that tip. I found that one of my email addresses was being picked up by another app (WhatsApp) this was added to my contacts because my Contacts setting was set to include "Contacts found in Apps" - so no i blue circle next to them!
The more sophisticated the software - the more 'Gotcha's' there are ;-)
somehow I managed to send a message
but couldn't locate it now
try it too
We've fixed that problem with this: Mail (Yosemite): Manage email addresses in the Previous Recipients list
I Agree!!!!
New iOS5 coming out soon, will the email cache be able to be deleted this time around?
No one here knows if the list of previous recipients will be accessible with iOS 5 as is accessible with the Mail app on a Mac.
I recently had this same issue, but after about a month of not emailing the stale address, it automatically deleted from my cache.
What you provided is for the Mail.app on a Mac.
You obviously do not have an iOS device since the same is not available with an iOS device - not at the present time.
This is the Using iPad discussions area.
I mean "Now that I know I can achieve this by restoring ..."
That is for the Mail.app on a Mac, not for the Mail app on an iOS device.
thank you so much for this. its been bugging me for a long time now on mail. cheers!
Hi, I have the same issue, so good old Apple has not addressed this. I realy hope they fix this issue.
Hi, I have tried this many times and I am sorry but it does not work.
The ipad is holding onto the cache.
You're right.
APPLE DO SOMETHING!!!
I need to be able to erase wrogh or obsolete emails from the cache memory!!
I sent a message to apple last week about this issue. I suggest we all send messages so they'll have to finally solve it.
Deleting Old Email Addresses From Cache?
