bbdb/news-auto-create-p (auto create entries from everything)
Does bbdbv3 have something similar to bbdb/mail-auto-create-p? Basically I just want bbdb to be big brother and auto-create entries for every email address I ever see. Ever. Thanks! Mitch PS What have people found to be the best source for configuring bbdbv3? I've found that nearly everything on emacswiki is for the old version... Maybe we should all just start asking questions on StackOverflow and let that be the documentation? That approach actually seems to work pretty well for some projects... -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

BBDB3 Electric Popup Window
Hello: I migrated to bbdb3 yesterday and so far I like it better than bbdb2. The only thing that I don't like is that the popup window is not electric anymore. Are there any plans for it?

Are there any plans for it? Hey, you seem to be the first one who was using the electric mode of BBDB v2. Actually, this was removed from BBDB v3 just a few days ago due to some general design flaws of the electric mode (things not particularly related to BBDB) and because it appeared that BBDB did not get any extra functionality from the electric mode. You might want to take a look at these recent threads on this list. I hope to learn something new here: In what way did you use the electric mode of BBDB v2? What are you missing without it?

Contrib directory and BBDB3
Hi:
It would be nice if there is a contrib directory in the source tree for
bbdb related code that works or have been updated to work with bbdb3.
As part of my migration process, I have updated
niko-bbdb-split.el. I hope some one will find it useful.
