Of course, these high-level commands provided in bbdb-mua.el do not take advantage of everything that is implemented on the lower level, in particular if you combine them with all permutations of settings for user variables used by these commands. But hopefully the new setup of the code does make it easier to customize the high-level commands the way you want them to be without a need to fiddle with the trickier low-level functions. --- On Fri Jul 6 2012 Sam Steingold wrote: Your general design decisions broke well-documented behavior that has been around since v 1.50.

Re: Why V3
Hi Roland, Sorry to drag this up again, but... Roland Winkler wink...@gnu.org writes: By now, unless someone on this list brings up problems with BBDB v3 that remained unnoticed so far, I do not have plans to further modify the code of BBDB (except for fixing docstrings that could still be buggy / incomplete). In particular, I do not want to introduce any additional incompatible changes beyond the ones present in the current code. I would really like to see the compatibility with lookout.el and csv.el to be restored, if possible. This is the only way I see now for contacts import/export with Outlook, unless on a Windows machine. [1] [2] Thanks for your consideration!
