Hi everyone! Please explain how to disable autocollection of addresses I received e-mails from? By default, Thunderbird collects e-mail addresses of senders in Collected Addresses section. How to disable it?

Are you using an addon for that? I am aware of a setting to keep addresses of outgoing messages, but not automatically to keep addresses of incoming ones .

No, I'm not using any addon. I need to disable autocollection feature. It is enabled by default.

The addresses appears after I send e-mails to anyone who is not in my address book. I am primary in this scenario.
