Could you please try to be more explanatory in such an email?
After executing which commands do you get what? If you think there
is a bug, which commands should do what differently?
(surely you have seen before the section on bug reporting in the
emacs manual)
-- There is no doubt that records without a name associated with
them are asking for trouble (sooner or later in the BBDB work flow).
Maybe BBDB should fill such empty name fields with random names of
the user's favorite poetry or movie stars
