Bug Description
Binary package hint: evolution
By default, the "Automatic Contacts" feature should use a separate address
book, probably named "Automatic Contacts". It's annoying to have the "Personal"
address book filled with all sorts of contacts that are not in any way personal
contacts. It takes extra work to separate this later. For people that aren't
going to ever care to separate them, having them separated by default isn't
going to do any harm.

I agree. I set it up to put automatic contacts into a new (non-default) address book, and it started filling this with contacts already in my Personal address book whenever I replied to them. This makes it useless in my eyes - it should check that the contact is not in any address book before adding them.
