Hi, to delete unwanted contacts, log into your Yahoo Mail account and click on the Contacts icon in the upper left corner of the screen (the icon with the folder that has a silhouette on it). In the search bar at the top of the screen, search for the contact you want to delete. When you've found it, click the square box to the left so that a check mark appears, then select Delete at the top of the screen, and then click Delete in the confirmation box that pops up.
