MPE adds "MyContacts" categories

Hi,
Have been using MPE for many years on many phones to sync with Outlook. After using "My Local Account" for contacts I have switched to Google.
I have categories appearing in my Outlook contacts. I think the "My Contacts" category has been there for years - just didn't bother cleaning it until now.
I now have both: "My Contacts" and "System Group: My Contacts" appearing in Outlook. I presume this is to do with the sync with MPE as it seems to be coming from the phone.
Of course it could be an artefact of Android or Android<->Google sync as well.

It does cause some sync issues as the same contact with different categories ends up getting duplicated.
(I have over 5000 contacts btw and MPE works really well most of the time)
Running 1.8.8.
Will upgrade to 1.8.9 and see if it changes.
Cheers Matthew

"My Contacts" is a non-deletable Google "thing". See ... https://www.scrubly.com/blog/how-to-out ... ifference/ … for one explanation ….
