Description David Ronis 2007-08-22 22:30:56 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
Several days ago I turned on automatic contacts (preferences->mail preferences->automatic contacts) and then turned it off. The preferneces dialog shows it being off.  Nonetheless, I'm still harvesting contacts for e-mails I respond to.



Steps to reproduce:
1. 
2. 
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

Evo version 2.11.92 has this problem even though I have never used this feature. It is on by default and every responded email generates a new contact when it is not in the address book.

Evo 2.12 has this problem as well. Having contacts automatically added is very inconvenient if it cannot be turned off.
Comment 3 David Ronis 2007-09-24 21:11:54 UTC 
I upgraded to evolution 2.12.0 and still have the problem.

I have this problem as well.

Also I can't choose in which AB to save the contacts. All those configurations are just lost.
