Noah Friedman has some generic vcard stuff on splode.com that may
serve as a starting point. As for not picking up spam addresses,
please read the section of the manual about making the
bbdb/*-auto-create-p variables functions rather than a simple 't' or
'nil'. This is a fairly common requirement, and it IS documented. Note
that you'll filter a lot of spam with the following two rules:
1. Don't auto-create for stuff not directly addressed to you
2. Don't auto-create for stuff matching one of
( "From" . "^[0-9]+@.*\\.com" ) [[EMAIL PROTECTED]]
( "To" . "friend@public\\.com" ) [this is still obscenely common]
( "To" . "^\\s-*$" ) [blank 'From' line]
One of BBDB's provided hook functions allow you to create a two-part
filter, whereby certain things are accepted by default, certain are
rejected by default, and the remainder are optionally offered for your
attention. See recent mailing list traffic (search the archives for
Bill Carpenter!) for more on this.
Cheers,
Waider.
