>Disable “auto-add contacts” in GMail

Every time when you send, reply or forward an email message to someone through Gmail, it automatically saves the email address of that person to your contacts list.

This auto-add feature can quickly jam your address book and it becomes ever more annoying if your contacts are set to automatically sync with your mobile’s address book.

To disable the auto-add feature in Gmail. Just go to your settings page and choose “I’ll add contacts myself” for the setting that reads “Create contacts for auto-complete” – now you’ll have manually added email addresses to your Google Contact which am sure most won’t mind.

The Gmail people has added a some other enhancements like you get better warnings if you make typo in email address, etc,.
