How to delete old addresses that appear in auto complete list in iMessage

Mavericks 10.9.1

iMessage Version 8.0 (4218)

MBP Late 2011

When typing in the name of a contact I want to message, a list of addresses appears as an auto-complete/auto-fill list.

One address is no longer used and I would like to delete that particular address.

The address is not on the contact card.

I'm sending a message via iMessage to another iMessage verified address on an Apple device(s).

My iCloud contacts are synced correctly with iphone/ipad/MBP.

Thanks

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

not true. only options are to create new contact, add to existing, or "large type."

That is what worked for me, none of the other options did. The contact is totally gone now and their other contact is also. Probably show up next message sent
