Okay Marijn,Are the contact stored in a flat text file that I can go in and edit (purge)... tough to do it one by one.thanksWayne On Sunday 15/12/2013 at 12:42 pm, Surgemail Support (Marijn) wrote: It sounds like you are hitting the maximum limit of what surgeweb will display, let me explain as it is a little odd if you don't understand what is going on.Surgeweb maintains all the contact information client side in the browser for fast access for autocompletion etc. If there were too many contacts the whole surgeweb experience slowed down to the point of extremely frustrating so surgeweb serverside limits the number of contacts it returns to the browser to 1000 by default.

It sounds like you are hitting the maximum limit of what surgeweb will display, let me explain as it is a little odd if you don't understand what is going on.Surgeweb maintains all the contact information client side in the browser for fast access for autocompletion etc. If there were too many contacts the whole surgeweb experience slowed down to the point of extremely frustrating so surgeweb serverside limits the number of contacts it returns to the browser to 1000 by default.
