Gmail is set up to harvest all incoming emails and add them to your Contact list by default. I found this out when I went into my Gmail Contacts and saw hundreds of malformed email addresses, including many entries for driving directions. Turns out Gmail turns this function on by default.
I just spent an entire hour removing all contacts and carpal is setting in. Why, you ask? Because Gmail doesn’t let you delete more than 20 contacts at a time. FAIL.
