I just applied a system update to my Android, and now my contacts include 
people I don't know.  It appears, that people's email addresses automatically 
create entries in the contact list - people for example on mailing lists like 
this.

I can go down the list and one by one, delete the contacts, but I think there 
*must* be a checkbox somewhere that says to automatically add people I've seen 
in email to my contacts list.  Try as I might, I just can't find such a 
checkbox, and my google-fu has failed me thus far.

Anybody have a clue?

The best answer I could find was here:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-droid-incredible/16772-stop-auto-add-contacts.html
which talks about HTC specifically (which I have), and says you can't undo.  
Which, if they're right, would be infuriating.
