Hello,
I have been working with BBDB 2.33 (with Gnus) for several months and have
been bugged by two problems.
1. I thought BBDB used to be able to understand that "Vinson, Jack" was the
same as "Jack Vinson." However, with this version it is not able to
equate these two names. This frequently leads to two entries in the
BBDB with the same net address. When this happens, I get errors on
entry of my Gnus groups, since I have the message list modified by known
senders in the BBDB. Or does this have something to do with a component
like mail-extract that has changed?
2. It hasn't happened in a few weeks, but BBDB had been truncating the last
letter from some net addresses, so that I have entries like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
instead of "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" I have only found these after the fact, so I
don't know what specific From line configuration is causing this. This
particular bug definitely started happening with 2.33.
[I have JUST upgraded to Emacs 21.1 and to Oort Gnus v0.03, but the first
problem is definitely still in existence.]
Thanks
