RTM contact list differs from updated GMail contact list

rodenw says:
When typing in a new task, using the name of a contact from my gmail contact list, RTM auto-suggests old names, which have been recently updated (changed) on my gmail contacts.

Example:

Original gmail contact info-
"Sally"
Sally@gmail.com

Updated gmail contact info-
"Mom"
Sally@gmail.com

So when i type "M(om)" it should suggest:
"Mom"
Sally@gmail.com

but nothing is suggested.


When i type "S(ally)" it auto-suggests:
"Sally"
Sally@gmail.com


So it appears that changing my contact information in gmail does not change the RTM contact setting. This is a problem for me : (

I tried re-installing RTM, and it didn't solve anything.
Please Help?

Thanks for letting us know. Gmail seems to have a little bit of a delay in updating the contact list that RTM uses, unfortunately -- we're checking into this and seeing if it's possible to instantly update.

We've now fixed this so it should get the updated contact name instantly (you'll need to reload Gmail to fix this).
