>From a show buffer, notmuch-bbdb/snarf-from imports the sender into bbdb. notmuch-bbdb/snarf-to imports all recipients. Newly imported concacts are reported in the minibuffer / Messages buffer.
Both functions use the BBDB parser to recognize email address formats. --- Following discussion upthread, I put everything in notmuch-address. I renamed the functions to put notmuch before bbdb. And I replaced the horrid comma-splitting from my first version with the functions BBDB provides for parsing email headers. It looks as though Reply-To is not exposed in the :headers plist. I assume the Resent-* headers are not, either. Therefore none of these are imported (nil entries in notmuch-bbdb/header-by-name). They would be easy to add if the plist is expanded. Thanks, and sorry it's taken me so long to get back to this patch. emacs/notmuch-address.el | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 43 insertions(+) diff --git a/emacs/notmuch-address.el b/emacs/notmuch-address.el index 2bf762b..8d5f727 100644 --- a/emacs/notmuch-address.el +++ b/emacs/notmuch-address.el @@ -98,4 +98,47 @@ line." ;; +;; functions to add sender / recipients to BBDB + +(defun notmuch-bbdb/snarf-headers (headers) + ;; Helper function to avoid code duplication in the two below + ;; headers should have the same format as bbdb-get-addresses-headers + + ;; bbdb-get-addresses reads these + ;; Ugh, pass-by-global + (let ((addrs (bbdb-get-addresses nil nil 'notmuch-bbdb/get-header-content)) + (bbdb-get-addresses-headers headers) ; headers to read + (bbdb-gag-messages t) ; suppress m/n processed message + ) + (bbdb-update-records addrs t t))) + +(defun notmuch-bbdb/snarf-from () + "Import the sender of the current message into BBDB" + (interactive) + (notmuch-bbdb/snarf-headers + (list (assoc 'authors bbdb-get-addresses-headers)))) + +(defun notmuch-bbdb/snarf-to () + "Import all recipients of the current message into BBDB" + (interactive) + (notmuch-bbdb/snarf-headers + (list (assoc 'recipients bbdb-get-addresses-headers)))) + +(defvar notmuch-bbdb/header-by-name + ;; both are case sensitive + '( ("From" . :From) + ("To" . :To) + ("CC" . :Cc) + ("BCC" . :Bcc) + ("Resent-From" . nil) + ("Reply-To" . nil) + ("Resent-To" . nil) + ("Resent-CC" . nil)) + "Alist for dispatching header symbols as used by notmuch-show-get-header +from strings as used by bbdb-get-addresses") + +(defun notmuch-bbdb/get-header-content (name) + (notmuch-show-get-header (cdr (assoc name notmuch-bbdb/header-by-name)))) + + (provide 'notmuch-address) -- 1.7.10.4
