Maybe, if rather than writing cryptic messages such as "is their any way
to delete an account from g contacts sink", users could be
encouraged/educated/whatever to write along the lines of :
"Hi. I downloaded the 'g contacts' program from <URL>, and
I am trying to use it to synchronise my Gmail contacts with
my Seamonkey address book, but there is one particular contact
that I don't want to synchronise and I can find no way of
deleting this one entry. Are there any 'g contacts' users
who might be able to help me ?"
then we might all benefit. The person with the problem will
almost certainly receive useful advice, and the rest of us
will be saved from having to try to guess to what utility
he/she is referring, and also be saved from having to guess
what he/she is really trying to accomplish.

Agreed, and responders like me should pay better attention to the
posters UA.
Just noticed Bryan is posting with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64;
rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/24.1.0 in a SeaMonkey support group.
I suspect Windows NT 6.3 is Win 8.1.
Well maybe his problem with SeaMonkey. Who knows?
I'm done here since I don't use Windows or Google. Just trying to be
helpful.
