If I have the following text:

--
Grace Travels (P) Ltd.
165 & 166, A Block,
Basheerbagh, Hyderabad AP 500001
Office: +91.40.2329-6418
Office: +91.40.2329-6419
Office: +91.40.2329-6420
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

and run bbdb-snarf on this region with the following changes to these
variables (merely getting it to recognize a different style of zip
code and phone numbers):
(setq bbdb-snarf-zip-regexp 
"\\<[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]\\(-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]\\)?\\>$")
(setq bbdb-snarf-phone-regexp "+[0-9][0-9][-. ][0-9][0-9][-. ][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][-. 
][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]")

The "." at the end of the company name will be the first record in the
address field. That is, the snarfed address field will look like:

.
165 & 166, A Block,
Basheerbagh, Hyderabad AP 500001

The snarfed name looks like "Grace Travels (P) Ltd"

This seems to happen with any non-alphabetic character that happens to
end the name. For e.g. "Cox & Kings Limited (India)" ends up with "Cox
& Kings Limited (India" and ") at the beginning of the address field.

I am using a recent BBDB from CVS.

Thanks,
Sridhar
