How do I delete only/all the email-only contacts?

Hey,

When I synced my gmail contacts, I got a TON of email contacts that do not have any other information (no name, number, etc.). Now, this is from a mailing list (a project I was doing long ago, if that interests you), and I don't need, or want them on my phone. Is there some way of removing them, but no other contacts from the phone's memory? I don't want to delete everything, then re-sync, since I have some contacts on my phone that were not synced from gmail, and would be lost. However, if I have to, I could do that as a very last resort.

The phone is an evo 3d, and the operating system it's running is android 2.3 (if that helps).

Thanks
 
Try going to Settings-- Account & sync--- pick the account you want to un-sync (facebook, gmail, yahoo) and click on it. Un-click the "Sync Contacts" check mark and then sync the account to make the changes. It deleted all the contact that were part of yahoo mail... just in case make sure you save your contacts on your computer first...
It worked for me :)
 
Thanks for the reply! I don't know if it works or not though, since I went through and deleted them by hand. I hope your answer will help someone!
