Hello Roland,

I pulled the latest version from Savannah.
And it is working like a charm!

>> 1) The completion format for certain records is strange (with or

I was wondering why, upon completion, in some cases people's name
appeared before the email and sometime not.
I found the culprit, since some variables names are different now, I had
to set `bbdb-mail-allow-redundancy` to t to always display the names.

Well, some characters in the name trigger the appearance of quotes.
But I can live with it, as it is merely cosmetic. No real issue.

I usually disable the bbdb-add-mail variable. For example if I go
through archived mails I don't want my friends obsolete addresses to be
added, neither in the case of mailing-lists. Otherwise, the bbdb file
soon become a mess.  
I could set bbdb-add-mail to query, but again, not very convenient and
too intrusive.

Currently, I add new entries "by hand". It is fine but automatically
adding peoples whom I correspond with would be even better.
