How do I delete contacts when I click "To"?

There are contacts that are in my "To" list that aren't in my Contacts List (which will only very rarely open) so I can't delete them from there.  They were put in there when I opened spam folders.  Two of the contacts in my "To" list have the same name as someone that I know but have different email addresses.  How do I delete these spam email addresses from my "To" list?

    Maybe I explained my problem incorrectly.  Email addresses are in 2 different locations.  One location is my Contact List.  The other location is my "To" list that opens when I click on the word "To" when I'm composing or replying to an email.  The spam email addresses are not in my Contact list so I can't delete them from there.  They are only available when I click on the word "To" and that list opens.  There is no option to delete the spam email address there.  Is there another way to delete them some other way since they are not in my Contact list?
