I always had contacts in the memory somewhere. As a matter of fact, I remember years back someone asked how to remove old contacts, when you start typing Dave, you get a whole list of "Daves." And if that Dave Jones had several addresses, all of them would show up. Perhaps no longer an issue. Thus, I did not bother to put them in the contact list. And then I got a new iMac and could not access my emails, so an Apple support found that I had two address: one at comcast.net, the other something High-speed internet, or something. So she deleted the "high speed" one and I lost about 300 emalis, which was not that bad. Did it not interfere with sending emails, though, so I thought that they floated someplace in the memory, for a while with a limited time and then disappeared.

And then I made the connection with a new software installed that I did not ask. I always get a note of a new App and I always ignore it, but that time decided to go ahead and was surprised that it was a software that took its time to install.

Of course I cannot say that it caused it, but at least associated with it.
