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?

The *BBDB* buffer should be displayed such that -if possible- a plain quit-window restores the window configuration. Yet somehow BBDB's approach is (has been) such that it fools quit-window. I'll try to find out how that can be fixed. -- 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.

I would like to have a much smaller window in Gnus then if bbdb is called up interactively. Thanks. Cheers, Charles -- Problem solving under linux has never been the circus that it is under AIX.
