I want to get rid of my old original contacts folder as this includes a ton
of old addresses that I no longer need.  

It seems that I can move, copy and delete my new folder but not this
original one?

However, I can't see a reasonably quick way to update this old folder?  And
if I'd known I wouldn't be able to I would never have created a second?  This
is just very confusing...  Automatically new email details are saved to this
old folder AND I DON'T WANT THAT!!  It's very frustrating...

Any ideas on what I can do to get rid of this old info?   And end up with
just one clean contact folder?

THANK YOU!
