This is the latest copy I found.

I have no idea if it works.
;;; This is bbdb-letter.el, version 0.96.

;;;
;;; This module is for creating formatted excerpts of BBDB databases.
;;; It can be used to create letter templates or address/phone lists
;;; with LaTeX/TeX. It might also be used to create, e.g., import
;;; files for a EXCEL(tm) database.
;;;
;;; USE: In the *BBDB* buffer, type l or *l to create a template of
;;; the current bbdb-record or of all the currently displayed
;;; records using the format (usually LaTeX/TeX) it will prompt
;;; for. It will prompt you for a filename and for
;;; a format (type of document). Then run LaTeX/TeX (or an
;;; appropriate processor) on that file and
;;; print it out.
;;;
;;; In order to use bbdb-letter for personal purposes, it is
;;; very likely that you will need to define your own document
;;; types/formats.
;;;
;;; Please direct any comments, improvements, or bug reports to
;;; [EMAIL PROTECTED] I would also be happy to
;;; integrate new document types/formats.
;;;
;;; INSTALLATION: Put this file somewhere on your load-path.
;;; Put (require 'bbdb-letter) in your .emacs, or autoload it.
;;; Put bbdb-print.tex (from bbdb-print) somewhere on your
;;; TEXINPUTS path, or put its absolute pathname in
;;; bbdb-print-format-file-name.
;;;
;;; In order to use the "phone list" format, you will need the
;;; supertab.sty LaTeX style. This can be obtained, e.g., by
;;; mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] (put the line "SENDME STY.SUPERTAB"
;;; into the meassage) an put supertab.sty on your TEXINPUTS
;;; path.
;;;
;;; DEFINITION OF DOCUMENT TYPES/FORMATS: New document types for
;;; bbdb-letter are defined by extending or redefining the variable
;;; bbdb-letter-alist.
;;;
;;; Any pair of bbdb-letter-alist consists of a string denoting
;;; the document type and a number of elisp expressions. The
;;; elisp expressions should assign (setq ...) values to the
;;; variables bbdb-print-prolog, bbdb-print-separator,
;;; bbdb-print-record, bbdb-print-epilog, and
;;; bbdb-print-address-default.
;;;
;;; Customization usually extends bbdb-letter-alist as follows:
;;; (setq bbdb-letter-alist
;;; (append bbdb-letter-alist
;;; '((\"myown letter\"
;;; ;;
;;; (setq bbdb-letter-prolog
;;; '(\"\\documentstyle ...
;;; ... ))))))")
;;; VARIABLES:
;;; bbdb-letter-prolog
;;; A list of strings forming the beginning of the LaTeX/TeX
;;; document.
;;; bbdb-letter-separator
;;; A string which is passed to format to produce a
;;; separator, when the first character changes.
;;; bbdb-letter-separator may also have the value nil.
;;; bbdb-letter-epilog
;;; A list of strings forming the end of the LaTeX/TeX.
;;; document.
;;; bbdb-letter-address-default
;;; String denoting the default address location.
;;; bbdb-letter-phone-default
;;; String denoting the default phone location.
;;; bbdb-letter-record
;;; This is a list consisting of strings, bbdb-keywords,
;;; lists, (bball ...) or (bbif ...) exprs.
;;;
;;; NOTE: An expression (bbif condition ifbranch elsebranch)
;;; or (bball ...) is NOT a regular elisp expression! It can
;;; not be evaluated! It is simply a data structure or macro
;;; which will be expanded later.
;;;
;;; If an element of the list bbdb-letter-record is a
;;; string: This string is copied to the output document
;;; (escape characters "\" for elisp strings are
;;; necessary)
;;; bbdb-keyword: this is interpreted as a bbdb keyword. It
;;; is a symbol and it may be one out of
;;; ('name 'firstname 'lastname 'company 'aka 'net
;;; 'notes 'addresses 'address-location 'address-street1
;;; 'address-street2 'address-street3 'address-city
;;; 'address-state 'address-zip-string 'phone-location
;;; 'phone-string 'phones)
;;; or a user defined keyword of a bbdb record (see
;;; bbdb-propnames for user defined keywords).
;;; bbif: has the form
;;; (bbif 'bbdb-keyword if-part else-part)
;;; where if-part and else-part again is a string,
;;; bbdb-keyword, list, (bball ...) or (bbif ...) expr.
;;; bball: has the form
;;; (bball addresses-or-phones separator)
;;; where addresses-or-phones is one of
;;; ('addresses 'phones)
;;; and separator again is a string,
;;; bbdb-keyword, list, (bball ...) or (bbif ...) expr.
;;; list: This is only for grouping. Any element of the list
;;; is a string, bbdb-keyword, list, (bball ...) or
;;; (bbif ...) expr.
;;;

;;; see also (defvar bbdb-letter-alist ...) below.
