Re: Sometimes I use the native Android app to add contacts too.

Be careful which account you create those contacts in.

If Aqua Mail then Android will call Aqua to sync those new contacts to the server -- since that's what you're telling it to do -- and then Aqua Mail will also sync from server to phone.

The check for "is sync enabled, if not, do not sync from server to phone" is done, and I'm about to post a new build.

PS - with that change -- "if sync is off, do not sync server to phone" -- even if you create a contact in the Aqua Mail Exchange account and "contact sync" for that account is off, then:

- The new contact will be uploaded to the server

- But Aqua Mail will *not* sync from server to phone.

Anyway, that's my theory about what's happening and the fix is for that.

Kostya,

I add contacts on the Android App using the Nine account. I don't select AM Exchange. At the end, that contact is send to AM contacts too, but it happens because AM is syncing from Exchange.

Well, no idea, but --

-- your contacts were getting synced with Aqua's "contact sync" off *because* Android was calling Aqua Mail to "please sync contacts in this account".

The thought about "creating contacts in Aqua's account" was just a thought, a guess. Maybe I'm wrong about that, but I'm sure that the cause was - Android calling Aqua Mail to "hey will you please sync contacts".

The check for "is contact sync off, and if it is, do not sync server to phone" was in last night's build.

Thanks Kostya. It is working fine. No more AM contacts.
I will wait for a future release hoping the groups/categories can be added to AM contacts.

Regards.

We'll have news on this soon, maybe even next week.
