Unfortunately, no. This change apparently only affects how contacts get added to the My Contacts or Suggested Contacts pseudo-groups. The Contacts API still provides no way to distinguish between My Contacts and Suggested Contacts.
You can see the bug report against this problem, plus some discussion between API consumers like us and the Google API team here: http://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/detail?id=677 Trevor Johns at Google most recently said: > That announcement was regarding promotion of contacts from "Suggested > Contacts" to "My Contacts". However, the Contacts Data API still doesn't allow > you to distinguish whether a contact is suggested or not. So we'll have to keep waiting for that feature to be added. If you'd like to see it, please "star" the issue in Google's bug database: http://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/detail?id=677 Thanks, Charlie On Oct 21, 5:01 pm, Carlos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2008/10/more-changes-to-gmail-contact-m... > > In this post, from Oct 21, Google states: > "As part of this change, we're moving previously auto-added contacts > back into Suggested Contacts.
